Rumors are multiplying about a potential departure from OGC Nice for Franck Haise, disappointed by the low investment from Ineos, who could also get rid of the Riviera club.
Franck Haise surprised everyone last summer by leaving RC Lens to join OGC Nice. The choice of the 54-year-old coach was the subject of numerous debates, because the project of the Riviera club seemed quite vague while the Sang et Or had a string of very good seasons in Ligue 1. We could then imagine that Franck Haise had received solid guarantees from Jim Ratcliffe, the boss of Ineos, in order to join a booming club. If this is the case, Franck Haise has fallen from a height because The Sports Daily confirms the information provided in recent hours by Romain Molina regarding the former Lensois coach's desire to leave.
Franck Haise feels betrayed by Ineos
According to the media, Franck Haise is totally open to new opportunities for the rest of his career, which he no longer imagines in Nice in the long term. The Gym coach would feel “betrayed” by Jim Ratcliffe, who had promised big investments on the Côte d'Azur to make the team very competitive, but who ultimately cut off the cash tap in order to concentrate exclusively or almost on Manchester United.
The winter transfer window will be decisive
The potential departure of Franck Haise could hide the increasingly probable departure of Jim Ratcliffe according to the media, which explains that the hypothesis of a sale of the club by Ineos in the coming months is confirmed “day after day”. Franck Haise has not yet made a final decision regarding his future and the winter transfer window will be “determinant” in the eyes of the former RC Lens coach, but also for Florian Maurice, the sports director who also has questions. If the two men do not feel a total investment from Ineos in the winter transfer window, they could then strongly consider a departure at the end of the season. The next few weeks therefore promise to be eventful on the Allianz Riviera side.
