Nice
Ligue 1
GTD
Injury Back
Est. Return 2/15/2026
Unlikely for derby
Boudaoui (back) is unlikely for Sunday's derby against Monaco, coach Claude Puel said to the media, according to Romain Lafont from L'equipe.
ANALYSIS
Boudaoui has been battling back issues for several weeks and is unlikely to be available for Sunday's derby against Monaco. The midfielder will be evaluated in the coming hours but with recent tension between him and the club, there is little incentive to fast-track his return. In the meantime, Salis Abdul Samed has been logging increased minutes in central midfield as a result of Boudaoui's continued absence.
