OGC Nice has already signed nine new players this summer. They have, among other things, brought Jean-Clair Todibo from FC Barcelona and the two Dutchmen Justin Kluivert and Calvin Stengs to the club, but the team from the French south coast is far from finished. They have also shopped at Southampton in the Premier League.

Kasper Dolberg will therefore become a teammate with 27-year-old Mario Lemina, who will return to France after four seasons on contract with Southampton.

Lemina made his breakthrough in the French Ligue 1 and was subsequently sold to Juventus in Serie A. After two seasons in the Italian Seria A, he was sold to Southampton where he was a regular part of the team for the first two years. However, he has spent the last two seasons on loan at Galatasaray in Turkey and Fulham in the Premier League respectively.
