Evann Guessand’s Future at OGC Nice Uncertain Amid West Ham Interest

Evann Guessand, the 23-year-old OGC Nice striker, has been the subject of intense transfer speculation recently. The academy graduate is enjoying a remarkable season with his boyhood club, having scored his tenth goal of the campaign against Olympique de Marseille on Sunday evening. Following the match, Guessand addressed questions about his future.

Reports suggest that a summer transfer is possible, unless Nice secures a spot in the UEFA Champions League, which could persuade Guessand to stay. Despite interest from Marseille, a move abroad seems more likely, with West Ham United expressing interest in the forward, who is valued at €30 million. The Premier League club has reportedly made contact with Guessand’s representatives.

However, a January departure appears unlikely, as Guessand himself confirmed in a recent interview: “I’m currently with Nice. The season is ongoing, and we have objectives to meet. My focus is entirely on my club and the goals ahead of us.”

OGC Nice is also reluctant to sell mid-season. However, the summer transfer window may present a different scenario, and if Guessand maintains his current form, the number of potential suitors is likely to increase.

As the situation develops, all eyes will be on the young striker’s performance and Nice’s final league position, which could significantly influence his future career moves.
