Manchester United transfer target Jean-Clair Todibo clashed with Nice fans following their 2-1 defeat at home to Montpellier on Friday night.

Nice enjoyed a stellar first half of the season under new manager Francesco Farioli – often described as a disciple of Roberto De Zerbi – and even topped the Ligue 1 table for a couple of weeks in the autumn.

However, they have since been beaten in seven of their last 12 league games and dropped to fifth in the standings, with Montpellier inflicting their latest loss.

Todibo put Montpellier ahead at the Allianz Riviera when he put the ball into his own net, though Jeremie Boga equalised almost immediately from the resulting kick-off. However, Teji Savanier scored a penalty towards the end of the first half to put Montpellier back in front and they held on to secure victory.

After the full-time whistle, Nice supporters targeted Todibo with a chant, singing: “If you’re not happy, leave the club.”

As the players went over to clap the ultras in the home end, Todibo had to be pulled away by some of his teammates after approaching the stands in anger. He was then whistled and jeered before being dragged back towards the dressing room by club captain and centre-back partner Dante, while some fans tried to climb over the fences and confront Todibo on the pitch.

Todibo has been frequently linked with a move to United over the last year. 90min reported last summer he was on their shortlist of defensive options in the event that Harry Maguire left for West Ham, but the former captain declined a move to London Stadium. The France international was the subject of interest from Tottenham Hotspur in the winter but they decided to pursue Genoa’s Radu Dragusin instead.

Nice are owned by INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who recently completed the purchase of a 28% stake in United.
