OGC Nice have permitted Mohamed-Ali Cho to undergo a medical at Hull City, as per a report from Nice-Matin.

It was reported by Fabrizio Romano over the weekend that a club-to-club agreement had been reached for the transfer of the French forward. The Italian journalist understands that the deal is worth €15m, including add-ons. That deal was struck following weeks of negotiations. At one point, talks had reached a dead end, prior to a breakthrough last week.

Cho is one of several players that Nice, in desperate need of players this summer, had identified as bankable. The Frenchman was a regular for Le Gym last season and was also included in the club’s Ligue 1 opener, against FC Lorient, on Sunday, albeit not as a starter.

The former SCO Angers forward has now been permitted to travel to England in order to undergo a medical. A departure is, therfore, nearing, and a welcome one as far as Nice are concerned.
