PSV’s Mohamed Ihattaren spotted at Nice’s training complex with agent Mino Raiola after calling in sick for club

PSV midfielder Mohamed Ihattaren has been spotted at Nice’s training ground with his agent Mino Raiola after ‘calling in sick’ for his club.

The 2020-21 Eredivisie runners-up face Galatasaray in the second leg of a Champions League qualifier in Turkey tonight, a tie they lead 5-1 from the first game.

Ihattaren, 19, had been ruled out of travelling with the squad for what was described as an illness.

However, he has now been seen out in France alongside well-known agent Raiola.

And according to Goal, the pair had a meeting with the Ligue 1 side to discuss the possibility of a transfer move for Ihattaren.

It is thought that PSV were aware of the trip and had given permission for Ihattaren to travel despite his sickness.

Raiola told the media last week that the teenager could leave PSV this summer if a good offer comes in for him.

Ihhattaren has featured 74 times for the Dutch side since making his debut in January 2019, scoring 11 goals and assisting ten more.

If he does join Nice, he would become the fourth Dutch player to join the French club this summer.

They have already acquired Pablo Rosario from PSV, Calvin Stengs from AZ Alkmaar on loan and Justin Kluivert from Roma on loan.

Meanwhile, AZ Alkmaar player Myron Boadu was also snapped with Raiola and Ihattaren in Nice.

Nice finished a disappointing ninth last season as they failed to qualify for European football.

Their mid-table disappointment comes just 12 months after they came fifth, a position which earned them a place in the Europa League.
