The players and staff are greeted by a huge crystal ball which opens into a large reception area and a spiral staircase taking visitors to the next level.
Players are able to use the brand new gym which includes a large swimming pool and two jacuzzi’s for relaxing after a training session.
Seven full size pitches surround the complex and a five-a-side pitch is on offer for their talented academy team.
The dining room looks over the pitches whilst the training centre has its own bedrooms for players to relax before or after a game.

Inside the locker room each player has his own name and number of the lockers.
It is decorated in red and black – the traditional colours of Nice’s home jersey.
Great attention to detail has gone into the press room with the names of all 826 players to have featured for the club propped up on the wall.
Hundreds of guests and the press were invited to the grand unveiling on Thursday as Nice look to build momentum in Ligue 1.

Balotelli has bagged five goal in his first four league starts as Wesley Sneijder will be hoping to roll back the years.
