Hull City agree deal for Nice forward Mohamed-Ali Cho

Hull City have reached an agreement with Nice to sign forward Mohamed-Ali Cho, according to Ben Jacobs. The clubs are understood to have settled the framework of a permanent transfer on Sunday.

The report says the deal is set at €13m, with a further €5m in conditional add-ons that would be triggered if Hull avoid relegation. That contingency links a portion of the package to the club’s performance over the coming season.

While an agreement between clubs marks a significant step, it stops short of completion. The move would still require the usual formalities before it can be confirmed publicly, including a medical, final paperwork and registration. Until those steps are concluded, the transfer remains short of official status.

The survival-based structure suggests Nice’s total return would rise only if Hull stay up, aligning incentives around the season’s outcome. For Hull, the approach limits guaranteed outlay while preserving upside for the selling club if benchmarks are met.

Further details such as the length of Cho’s prospective contract or the timing of his medical have not been specified in the reporting. An announcement would be expected once the remaining procedures are completed.
