In-demand midfielder Jean-Michael Seri has reportedly not travelled with the Nice squad for the club's pre-season training camp amid speculation surrounding his future.
The 26-year-old was strongly linked with a move to Barcelona last summer, while the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, West Ham United and Napoli have since been credited with an interest.
Seri is believed to have a £35m release clause in his contract, although that buy-out figure is said to expire on July 15.
According to Sky Sports News, the Ivory Coast international has not travelled with the Nice squad on their pre-season training camp - aiding suggestions that a move is imminent.
Seri, who is an 18-time Ivory Coast international, has scored 12 times and registered 26 assists in 123 appearances for Nice in all competitions.
