French defender Jean-Clair Todibo has been linked with a move to the Premier League at the end of the season.
The 23-year-old is a key player for French club Nice and his performances have caught the eye of several Premier League clubs.
According to a report via GFFN, Manchester United, Liverpool and Newcastle United are all interested in signing the versatile defender and they are expected to pay a fee of around €30m (£26.5m) for he.
Todibo is a central defender who can also function as a full-back. His versatility will be an added asset to his suitors. It's no secret that Manchester United will need to beef up their defence, especially with the futures of Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof at stake. Both players have fallen in form at Old Trafford and they could be looking to leave in search of regular game time.
Similarly, Liverpool should improve on players like Joel Matip and Joe Gomez. Moreover, Todibo can also support Trent Alexander-Arnold at full-back.
As for Newcastle, they have built a formidable defense but have not brought in a quality long-term partner for Sven Botman. The French defender would be the ideal deal for Eddie Howe's side.
