UEFA Europa Conference League: France defender Jean-Clair Todibo has joined West Ham United from Ligue 1 club OGC Nice on an initial season-long loan, with an option to make the transfer permanent in summer 2025.

The 24-year-old, who has earned two caps for France, began his career at Toulouse before joining La Liga side Barcelona in 2019. Since his move to Nice in 2021, he has made 136 appearances for the club.

Todibo helped Nice reach the Coupe de France final in 2022, UEFA Europa Conference League quarterfinals in 2022/23 and achieve two fifth place finishes in Ligue 1 in the previous three seasons. Now, the French Guiana-born player, who will wear the No. 25 shirt, is looking forward to showing his outstanding all-round qualities in a Claret and Blue shirt.
