Boss of the best defense in Ligue 1 (9 goals conceded after the 16th day), the young 23-year-old French international is one of the strong points of the Riviera squad.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Spurs will try everything to secure his signature this winter even if, beyond Todibo, they will especially have to convince Nice.

« Tottenham have now opened negotiations to sign Jean-Clair Todibo in January. He is high on Tottenham’s list, not an easy deal with OGC Nice, but talks begin now. Spurs have also spoken to the player’s entourage in recent days », Wrote the Italian transfer window specialist on X. With the sale of Harry Kane this summer, Spurs have the finances to seduce Nice. They are ready to spend 45 million euros on the French defender according to the latest information in England. An investment that is worth it for Spurs, engaged in the race for the Premier League title. The financial offer must be perfect because it is not certain that Todibo will put his place at the Euro in danger against the current defenders of Tottenham: Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven or even Ben Davies.
