OGC Nice initiated legal action against Grégory Lorenzi at the labor court (Prud’hommes), alleging an “abusive breach of contract.” The club claims Lorenzi abandoned signed commitments to join Nice in favor of a sporting director position with Olympique de Marseille.

Following a failed conciliation phase where no agreement was reached, the dispute has moved to the “mise en état” stage. This phase requires both parties to exchange evidence and clarify legal positions. While Nice is seeking financial compensation for the breach of professional obligations, legal experts suggest it is unlikely Lorenzi will be forced to leave his position at Marseille.
