Nice have confirmed that they have sacked promising forward Lamine Diaby-Fadiga after he admitted to stealing a watch owned by new signing Kasper Dolberg.
Reports first surfaced about the incident last week, with Dolberg going to the police over the loss of the accessory, which was valued at a reported €70,000.
A statement released by the Ligue 1 side reads: "OGC Nice and Lamine Diaby Fadiga parted ways on Tuesday. Following the theft of Kasper Dolberg’s watch from the professional first team’s changing room, and the subsequent admission of the player, the Club decided to cancel its contract with the 18-year-old forward with immediate effect.
