Nice have already made a decision on Moffi's future | OneFootball

Nice has made a definitive decision regarding the future of Terem Moffi, a forward on loan at FC Porto, and Jérémie Boga, currently loaned to Juventus, by announcing that neither of them will wear the club’s shirt again. The split is total, and the measure, described as irreversible, was confirmed by the French club’s deputy vice-president, Maurice Cohen.

Speaking to Ici Azur radio, the executive was clear: «They will not return to Nice, whether their purchase options are exercised or not». The statement therefore shuts the door on the duo’s return, with the two players having been on loan at FC Porto and Juventus, respectively, since January.

The departure of both players on loan came after a deteriorating relationship with the board and the fans, which reached a point of no return in November 2025. At that time, following a defeat to Lorient that worsened the team’s poor run of form, a group of supporters approached the players near the training centre.

During the incident, Moffi and Boga were subjected to physical assaults and racist abuse. Terem Moffi was especially targeted for having been seen as too cordial with the Lorient president after the match. The episode left deep scars on both footballers, who immediately expressed their desire to leave the club.

Convinced that Nice had failed to ensure their safety, the players initiated legal action with the professional football authorities. Tensions between the parties became irreversible, now culminating in the official confirmation that both players’ time at the Côte d’Azur club has come to an end.

FC Porto has the right to activate a permanent purchase option worth a fixed €8 million for the full rights to Moffi. The agreement also includes a variable amount that could reach €250,000, depending on the fulfilment of individual and collective objectives. In return, Nice secured 10% of any future capital gain if FC Porto signs the player permanently and later transfers him.

Moffi has made 14 appearances for FC Porto, scoring two goals and providing one assist.
