Two African players reportedly want to leave Ligue 1 outfit OGC Nice after they were allegedly assaulted by their own fans on Sunday night.
Reports in France claim that close to 400 Ultras waited for the team outside the club’s training ground after the 3-1 loss to Lorient in Ligue 1.
ESPN reported that two supporters entered the bus and were particularly upset with Terem Moffi and Jérémie Boga as well as club’s sporting director Florian Maurice.
Moffi and Boga were reportedly kicked, punched, spat on and insulted.
RMC Sport have now reported that striker duo have no desire to play for the Ligue 1 outfit again after the attack on Sunday.
The report adds that both Moffi and Boga have gone to the police to press charges against the perpetrators.
The club confirmed that both players have been given support following the horrible incident.
“On Sunday, on their return from Lorient, the Eaglets were welcomed at the training ground by an important gathering.
“The club understands the frustration created by the succession of poor displays and performances far from its values.
“However, the excesses we saw during this gathering are unacceptable. A few members of the club have been attacked. OGC Nice give them its full support and condemn these acts with the highest toughness.”
