This Thursday evening, OGC Nice will cross paths with Niklas Hult again. The Swedish international, Aiglon from 2014 to 2016, is an Elfsborg executive.
The “Hult!” Hult! Hult! » descended the stands of the Allianz Riviera for two seasons. Arriving at OGC Nice in 2014 from… Elfsborg, the Swedish left-hander, alternately used as a torchbearer, full-back or midfielder, had his little side in the Nice stands. Thanks to an exciting start and a goal, his first in red and black, against Marseille (2-1).

Returning home in 2022, he had previously continued his career in Greece (Panathinaikos and AEK Athens) and in Germany (Hanover), after 47 appearances in the Nice jersey.
