According to the Scottish Sun, Nice and Patrick Vieira are considering a move for young Eboue Kouassi this summer.
The kid signed with a decent reputation but he’s certainly not proven himself good enough as yet with him needing more minutes and game-time in order to do so.
He might not get that next season with us, though, with the French side apparently weighing up a move for him.
Vieira recently left New York City in America and was quickly appointed the new manager of the French side as he looks to make himself a name as a coach in Europe.
Certainly, it’d be interesting to see what he could do with Kouassi.
The Verdict
The youngster has talent but he needs a proper run and I don’t think he has done enough to warrant that for us.
Whether it’s a loan or a permanent deal that sees him leave this summer remains to be seen but I could see it happening.
