Foxes, Saints target wants to stay at Nice
​Chased by Leicester City and Southampton, the Ivorian has certainly earned a big move after scoring six Ligue 1 goals and adding nine assists this season for Nice.
“A departure from Nice? No,” Seri confirmed to local paper Nice Matin (via Le10Sport),
“I had had a satisfactory first season here, I needed to prove that it wasn’t a fluke.
“A great player doesn’t leave as soon as he’s had a great season. One needs to keep playing well, for a number of seasons.”
Seri is part of a side that has broken through, and is currently guaranteed of a Top 3 (and Champions League) spot next season.
“There is no reason, therefore, for me to think of a departure. I’m happy here, it’s an experience which gives me pleasure.
“Nice are growing, the new academy is being built, and there are still many nice things I can do here”.
