Official: OGC Nice announces the arrival of Yehvann Diouf

It's now official! OGC Nice announced this Thursday, July 3, 2025, the arrival of former Reims goalkeeper Yehvann Diouf, who will succeed Marcin Bulka, transferred to Saudi club Neom.

Yehvann Diouf, the 25-year-old Senegalese international, has signed a five-year contract with the Red and Black. The Riviera club's management outpaced the competition with a bid just under 7 million euros, including easily attainable bonuses.

"Yehvann embodies stability, consistency, and beyond his intrinsic qualities, he is a player in his prime who was used to wearing the captain's armband at his former club," explained Florian Maurice, the club's sporting director.

He added: "We are signing not only a goalkeeper but also a leader accustomed to responsibility, someone we see as part of our long-term project, as he has committed to a five-year contract."
