Hull City confirm Mohamed-Ali Cho signing from Nice in €13m deal
The French forward joins on a five-year contract from Nice, with Hull agreeing an initial €13m fee and a further €5m in add-ons linked to the club avoiding relegation.
Hull City have confirmed the signing of French forward Mohamed-Ali Cho from Nice on a five-year contract on Thursday, adding a frontline option on a long-term deal.
According to Ben Jacobs, the agreement is for an initial €13m, with a further €5m payable if Hull stay up.
The survival-linked element means part of the overall outlay is contingent on team performance rather than guaranteed upfront, a common structure that phases spending and aligns incentives between buying club and selling club. In this case, the additional payment would be activated only if the predefined condition tied to league status is met.
The five-year term underlines a significant commitment to Cho’s integration and development within the squad. Such length also provides the club with security over the player’s registration during his peak seasons, while offering continuity for the coaching staff as they shape attacking options for the campaign ahead.
Beyond the headline figures and contract length, no further details were specified in the initial confirmation, such as presentation plans or a shirt number. Any subsequent administrative steps will follow as standard after a club announcement of this kind.
