Do you recognise this man?

Ligue 1 side Nice want to find a mystery supporter who was caught on camera wearing one of their old replica shirts at an English Premiership game.

An eagle-eyed viewer spotted the red-and-black Nice shirt in a sea of red-and-black shirts at the Vitality Stadium, the home of English Premiership side Bournemouth, during a broadcast of pay-TV channel SFR Sports' English football magazine show PL Zone.

The club would like to invite the wearer to a match at the Allianz Riviera.

On lui doit bien une invitation à l'@AllianzRiviera ...
