And William saliba opted for the second option. At a press conference, the native of Bondy had explained his decision at the beginning of January. “Nice was my favorite choice because it’s a good club that I’ve loved for a long time. A club which still plays at the top of the table and which qualifies for European competitions. This is a club with ambition, a good style of play based on possession. Saint-Etienne is my home, it’s a comfort zone. I wanted to get out of that comfort zone. Coming to Nice where I have never played is a better choice “, he had confided.
