Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is on the brink of signing for Nice.
The 35-year-old is expected to undergo a medical over the next 48 hours after getting the blessing of manager Brendan Rodgers to seek a new challenge.
Schmeichel was left out of Leicester's friendly against Sevilla on Sunday and afterwards, Rodgers confirmed it was very possible he would leave before the start of the Premier League season.
"Absolutely (it is a possibility Schmeichel may not start the season in goal). There's nobody here guaranteed to play," said Rodgers.
Nice are also in the running for free agent former Juventus midfielder Aaron Ramsey.
