Leaves with issue Tuesday
Boudaoui suffered an injury after a violent collision during Tuesday's relegation playoffs matchup versus Saint-Etienne.
Analysis: Boudaoui may be dealing with an important blow given that he was withdrawn after only 11 minutes of Tuesday's clash. However, the extent of his potential absence is unknown. This problem would also be a blow for Algeria ahead of the World Cup, with the midfielder expected to feature in the international competition. He had previously scored one goal and two assists over 25 games played in the Ligue 1 season. Charles Vanhoutte and Fares Chaibi could see increased action in his place for the club and national team, respectively.
Available for season finale
Boudaoui (muscular) has been cleared and is available for Sunday's season finale against Metz, with the midfielder in contention to start, the club posted.
Analysis: Boudaoui had been a late call heading into the weekend after managing muscular issues, but his clearance is a welcome boost for Nice heading into the final fixture of their Ligue 1 campaign. The Algerian international is a key piece of the Aiglons' midfield engine and his availability gives coach Claude Puel his preferred options in the middle of the park for the Metz clash.
