Despite New York City FC manager Patrick Vieira denying the rumors of advanced talks with the club, the French media continues to link the current NYCFC boss to Ligue 1 club OGC Nice. RMCSport.com is now reporting that Nice executive director Julian Fournier is expected to fly out to New York at some point this week to finalize the deal.
This report was corroborated by Matt Reed — a contributor to NBC Sports Soccer — on Twitter.
Reports out of France seem to suggest what I've been hearing as well.
