The sale of OGC Nice is imminent, INEOS in exclusive talks with American investor. The sale of OGC Nice is just days away from being announced. INEOS has been in exclusive talks with an American investor for several weeks, with a deadline set for June 15th. After a disappointing season, OGC Nice secured their place in Ligue 1 through a double confrontation in the playoffs against AS Saint-Etienne. The Aiglons were on the brink of losing all value due to a hypothetical descent to the second division. The club's future is now in question. Before thinking about the transfer market, INEOS is actively negotiating the sale of the club to an American investor, with whom exclusive talks were initiated in early May, as revealed by Nice-Matin. And for those who are eager for the club to change ownership, the deadline is approaching quickly. Indeed, the regional daily newspaper even goes further in revealing on Tuesday that INEOS and its interlocutor have set the deal's outcome for Monday, June 15, 2026. For several weeks, the American investor in question and the English owner have been exchanging on the subject of the club's sale and have signed a confidentiality agreement that must not be broken, at the risk of jeopardizing the operation. It is precisely for this reason that no information has leaked about the buyer, their financial capacity, and their sporting ambitions with OGC Nice. For now, Nice-Matin indicates that Jean-Claude Blanc has been in charge of the visit to the training center, but also of the rest of the file, which would take the form of a total sale or a progressive sale. In parallel, the questions about the sport are not put on hold despite the discussions on the change of ownership, as our colleagues point out, while Geoffrey Moncada is expected in mid-June in Nice to take up the position of sports director, who is already working on the contours of the team for next season.
