It's all confirmed: Charles Vanhoutte has joined Nice from Union Gilloise. The midfielder has penned terms with his new club and completed all registration steps. This deal brings to an end a high-profile pursuit, with Nice now adding another piece to their evolving squad structure. With no other clubs strongly linked, Nice were able to move quickly and secure the deal without distraction. In season 25/26, Nice are conceding 1.67 goals per game (10 in 6 games), which points to a lack of control in midfield. Charles Vanhoutte would be expected to calm things down and protect the back line better. Nice have recently been linked with Lassine Sinayoko, Tiago Gouveia and Odsonne Edouard while Union Gilloise have had no rumoured targets. Stay tuned for more details as the story develops.
