Lucien Favre, without a club since being dismissed by Borussia Dortmund in December 2020, was however already on the premises, according to these sources.
Favre should have in his staff Frédéric Gioria, his former assistant, who was also the assistant of Galtier last season and Patrick Vieira before.
The Nice group which resumed training was deprived of internationals, including French hopefuls Khéphren Thuram and Amine Gouiri and Dane Kasper Dolberg.
