Makes Hull debut
Cho recorded no stats in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Coventry City.
Analysis: Cho replaced Mohamed Belloumi in the 83rd minute and was limited to seven minutes plus stoppage time, leaving him without meaningful statistical production. The appearance nevertheless marked his first competitive minutes following his arrival at Hull. His pace, dribbling and ability to operate across the attacking line should provide the club with another dynamic option once he's fully integrated into the side.
Joins Hull City
Cho has completed a permanent transfer from Nice to Hull City, signing a five-year contract through 2031, the club announced.
Analysis: Cho arrives at Hull City after recording 12 goals and 13 assists across 93 appearances during his time with Nice, while also gaining European experience in both the Champions League and Europa League. The 22-year-old's pace and versatility allow him to operate on either wing or through the middle as a forward, giving Hull additional flexibility across the front line. Cho should compete for regular minutes in multiple attacking roles following his move to England.
Back fit during preseason
Cho is training in full during preseason and is fully fit for the 2026/27 season, the club posted.
Analysis: Cho's clean bill of health is an encouraging sign after a foot injury forced him off against Saint Etienne, though the club's break during the World Cup gave him ample time to recover. He contributed four goals and three assists last season, and a fully healthy start to preseason under the new coaching staff is good news for the forward, although reports suggest he might be on the move during the summer transfer window.
Picks up foot blow in playoff game
Cho left Friday's promotion playoffs match against Saint-Etienne after suffering a foot injury, Flavien Tresarrieu of L'Equipe reports.
Analysis: Cho played 45 minutes but couldn't return to the pitch for the second half while his team secured its spot in the first division for the 2026/27 season. The forward, who scored four goals and three assists during the Ligue 1 campaign, will have plenty of time to work on his recovery while club activity stops for the World Cup, so this issue shouldn't force him to miss a long time unless he's dealing with a serious fracture. He was replaced by Kail Boudache after getting hurt.
Fit for season finale
Cho (muscular) has been cleared and is available for Sunday's season finale against Metz, with the forward in contention to start, the club posted.
Analysis: Cho had been a late call heading into the weekend after managing muscular issues, but his clearance is a significant relief for Nice given his status as an undisputed starter. Coach Claude Puel will now have his preferred attacking options available for the final fixture of the Ligue 1 campaign against Metz as Nice still fights to avoid relegation.
Late call against Metz
Cho (muscular) is a late call for Sunday's clash against Metz, with a final decision to be made before the match, according to coach Claude Puel, per Ici Azur. "We have had some muscular issues and some sick players. Boudaoui and Cho, we will see before the match how they feel."
Analysis: Cho is an undisputed starter for Nice, making his potential absence a significant concern heading into the weekend fixture. Kail Boudache is expected to start in his place should Cho be unable to go, with the club monitoring his condition closely before making a final call ahead of Sunday's match.
