After two seasons with Olympique de Marseille, Jonathan Clauss packed his bags and joined OGC Nice during the summer transfer window. The 31-year-old right-back has signed with the Nice club for the next two seasons for the sum of 5 million euros.
A transfer that may come as a surprise because the French international was one of the starters in the Marseille squad. Questioned this Sunday on the show Telefootthe French international returned to the reasons for his departure from OM. “I was simply made to understand that it was time for us to separate. I respect OM and its decisions. There is no clash or problem with the club,” he confessed.
Jonathan Clauss is therefore a new player for OGC Nice. The Frenchman is reunited with Franck Haise, who he worked alongside at Racing Club de Lens and who helped him reach the top level. Under the leadership of the French coach, Jonathan Clauss is back in a role that suited him perfectly within the Blood and Gold squad.
Positioned on the right wing of a four-man defense in Marseille, Clauss returns to the piston position at OGC Nice. A position where he can best express his offensive qualities. This Sunday, for the 2nd day of Ligue 1, he should once again play in this position against Toulouse.
