And interest is already arriving from Saudi Arabia.

Ratcliffe purchased OGCN in 2019 for £89m, but despite the club now sitting in fifth place on the Ligue 1 table, he is now seeking to sell.

And Nice fans could be on track to a massive lift, with Saudi's Public Investment Fund (PIF) now expressing interest in taking the club off Ratcliffe's hands.

PIF also own Premier League club Newcastle United.
