Gauthier Hein joins Nice from Metz
Midfielder Gauthier Hein completes his transfer to Nice from Ligue 2 Metz for around 2 million euros.
Nice have officially announced the signing of Gauthier Hein, a 29-year-old attacking midfielder from Metz, according to L'Équipe. The French club paid approximately 2 million euros (or over 3 million with add-ons, per Metz's valuation) to secure the player, who had a contract with the Lorraine club until 2028.
Hein has committed to Nice on a three-year deal and will wear the number 7. This marks the club's second summer signing, following the arrival of Laurent Abergel from Lorient. The midfielder had also attracted attention from Mainz. Hein could make his debut for Nice in a friendly match this Saturday against Cagliari.
