In an interview on OGC Nice 's channels, Moise Bombito (26) has confirmed that he will undergo further surgery on the tibia injury that he suffered at the start of October.
Bombito suffered a broken tibia against AS Monaco at the start of October 2025 and did not return in time to feature again for Nice last season. However, he did make Canada's FIFA World Cup squad and even started in their Round of 16 defeat to Morocco in the competition. He returned to Nice but was not included in the matchday squad to face FC Lorient on the opening matchday of the Ligue 1 season.
That absence could be explained by recurrent pain in his injured tibia. Speaking to Nice's official channels, Bombito said that, at the World Cup, it was "his body fighting against his heart". It was his heart that won, as Bombito did play at his home World Cup, albeit not fully fit, he confirmed. But he is now set for an extended period on the sidelines, after it was confirmed, following tests on Tuesday, that he would undergo another round of surgery on the tibia injury. Nice-Matinunderstands that he will be out for several months.
