The Roma winger will be joining the French side on a year-long loan spell with an option to buy.<\/p>\n<h2>Justin Kluivert to Join Nice<\/h2>\n<h3>Fourth Club in Three Years for Justin Kluivert<\/h3>\n<p>Roma winger Justin Kluivert is set to join French side Nice on a season-long loan deal with an option to buy. The Ligue 1 side will be the fourth club in three years for Kluivert, who was once coveted by Europe&#8217;s elite. The last three years have seen Kluivert Jr playing for Ajax, Roma and RB Leipzig.<\/p>\n<p>Son of Dutch legend Patrick Kluivert, Justin, like his father, burst onto the scene as a teenager at Ajax. The winger quickly attracted the attention of Europe&#8217;s elite and finally opted to join Roma in 2018. However, the move failed to produce the required results for the young winger.<\/p>\n<p>The last three seasons have seen Kluivert struggling to live up to his potential. After a decent start in Rome, Kluivert struggled with injuries and a drop in form. A <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2020\/10\/05\/justin-kluivert-joins-rb-leipzig-on-loan-from-roma\/\" target=\"_self\">loan move to RB Leipzig<\/a> last season yielded the same result for the former Ajax man. Over the last three seasons, Kluivert has made 95 appearances but found the net just 13 times.<\/p>\n<p>At 22, Kluivert is still very young. The young winger will be hoping to turn his fortunes around as he looks set to sign for Nice.<\/p>\n<h3>A Very Busy Transfer Window for Nice<\/h3>\n<p>Nice have been very busy during this transfer window. The French side started the season officially appointed reigning Ligue 1 winning manager Christophe Galtier from Lille at the end of last month. They announced their first signing a day prior to the Galtier&#8217;s arrival after activating the buy option in Jean-Clair Todibo&#8217;s loan deal.<\/p>\n<p>Highly-rated Dutch winger Calvin Stengs from AZ Alkmaar was the second one to follow. Just a couple of days ago, Nice agreed on a deal to sign Melvin Bard from Lyon. Justin Kluivert will be the fourth player to arrive at the Allianz Riviera this season.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"ZcjSshOZTWFxdyE0mQHu6A\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1233256134\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'ZcjSshOZTWFxdyE0mQHu6A',sig:'nK9ZHBtadFS3fHcKy--os4FB_mTMP140Sk9nh2p7mAo=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1233256134',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dutch international Justin Kluivert is set to join Ligue 1 side Nice, according to Fabrizio Romano.
