Jean-Clair Todibo’s troubled West Ham spell precedes Lens loan
Sep 01 2026 05:18 · By onefootball.com · 63 Reads
Jean-Clair Todibo has joined Lens on loan from West Ham after a mixed season punctuated by disagreements with his managers, according to L'Équipe.
His reputation in Ligue 1, notably at Nice, is kinder than the impression he left in the Premier League. The France international has two caps.
He was relegated to the Championship with West Ham in May.
That campaign featured disputes with the two managers who took charge, Graham Potter then Nuno Espirito Santo.
It concluded with a decisive survival match against Leeds that he is said to have refused to play, having privately vowed not to feature again under the Portuguese coach.
