Having made 27 club appearances for four clubs in four different countries, Todibo returned to France to join OGC Nice on an initial loan deal on 1 February 2021, a month past his 21st birthday, before signing permanent terms that summer. He has been a regular starter ever since, playing 138 matches across three-and-a-half seasons, scoring two goals, reaching the Coupe de France final in 2022 and helping Nice achieve two fifth-place finishes in Ligue 1.
