According to a report by Foot Mercato, Hull City, Crystal Palace, and Nice remain interested in Trabzonspor’s French midfielder Tim Jabol Folcarelli. The report also states that Al-Taawoun from Saudi Arabia is considering a loan deal with an option to buy. The report adds that the Claret-Blue management has set a transfer fee at approximately €7–8 million but is not eager to sell the player.

OGC Nice had made contact regarding Tim Jabol-Folcarelli before the arrival of its new sporting director. French clubs are now at a disadvantage in pursuing the player due to his high salary in Turkey, which also makes potential transfers to Ligue 1 less likely. The transfer fee for the player has been set by his current club at approximately 7 to 8 million euros.

The French club Nice has a long-standing, serious interest in Tim Jabol-Folcarelli, a 26-year-old French central midfielder for Trabzonspor. An official offer between 6 and 7 million euros was made to Trabzonspor. However, the club's management does not intend to sell the player, who is considered an indispensable part of manager Fatih Tekke's midfield. The club will not consider any proposal for Folcarelli unless it is for approximately 15 million euros, and an improvement to the player's salary is also under consideration. Jabol-Folcarelli joined Trabzonspor in February 2025 and has a contract until June 2029. He recorded 3 assists in 27 Süper Lig appearances in the 2025/2026 season. His current market value is €7.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
