Sir Jim Ratcliffe puts entire squad of Man United sister club up for sale in brutal move

Manchester United's sister club have moved to put every single player on the transfer list this summer, shock reports claim.

Ligue One side OG Nice are primarily owned by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS, who acquired the club in 2019.

But Nice endured a dire 2025/26 season and only narrowly avoided relegation to the second tier.

After finishing fourth in the previous campaign, Nice dropped down to 16th in the table and had to face Saint Etienne of Ligue Two in the relegation play-offs.

Nice won 4-1 on aggregate over two legs to retain their top flight status but the team flirting with relegation after a dismal campaign where they won just seven games in the league, is set to spark mass changes at the club.

According to French side L'Equipe, there looks set to be a whole host of departures at the Allianz Riveira.

In fact, the report states that Nice need to collect £34 million from outgoings before they can bring any new recruits.

That means every member of their playing squad is available for transfer.

The club have a new sporting director controlling transfers, with Roger Ricort having his work cut out after taking the position on July 1.

No player 'untouchable' at OG Nice as Man United sister club look to offload stars

It's said nobody in the squad is "considered untouchable" but there are a number of leading candidates for players Nice are looking to offload.

Terem Moffi, who has been on loan at Porto for the back-end of the 2025/26 campaign, is one of the club's top earners along with Sofiane Diop, the Morocco midfielder.

Hicham Boudaoui, Melvin Bard and Mohamed-Ali Cho are all listed as potential candidates to move on and it's claimed that the situation involving vice-captain Morgan Sanson, Kojo Peprah Oppong and Antoine Mendy will be worth keeping an eye on.

Veteran Brazilian defender Dante will not be with Nice next season as he announced his retirement from football.

But they have secured the services of midfielder Laurent Abergel on a free transfer after he left Lorient.

There is also a new coach in the building after Olivier Pantaloni was appointed manager on a two-year contract - replacing former Leicester and Southampton boss Claude Puel at the helm.

INEOS have been looking to sell Nice and a deal with American investors looked set to take place after they visited the club's training ground.

A deadline of June 15 was set but the mooted sale fell through at the last minute and leaves the club in limbo going into next season.

Ratcliffe had been looking for more than €200 million to end his seven-year association with Nice but dropped the asking price after potential buyers were reluctant to pay the valuation.
