Youssoufa Moukoko is expected to return from his loan from the OGC Nice to Borussia Dortmund in summer. “The association has not yet officially commented, but there is no doubt that the purchase option is not drawn,” the “Ruhr Nachrichten” quoted the French local journalist Leandra Iacono from the newspaper “Nice-Matin”.
The TV broadcaster “Sky” had already reported at the end of November that Nice will do without a firm obligation. Moukoko could be kept by purchase option for 18 million euros and in the event of a transfer, BVB would have a resale participation. So far, the 20 -year -old striker has completed 817 minutes on 22 missions for Nice and contributed two hits and templates. The truth also includes: Three of his four goal participations will reach the AS Saint-Étienne 8-0 on matchday 5.
If Moukoko briefly made positive headlines during this time, it became quiet afterwards. The two -time national player has a difficult time under coach Franck Haise is rarely used, let alone appointed to the squad. Mukoko recently stood on the pitch in the cup round of round in the cup round of ultimate against Stade Briochin (2-1) for a few minutes. In Ligue 1, where Nice is third, he was not used in the last four games and against Lens (1-0) on the 21st matchday and in Saint-Étienne (3: 1) on match day 24, he was not part of the squad.
“Moukoko often got chances, but never convinced. OGC Nice currently has hardly any injuries. If all players are there, it is difficult for him to make it into the squad, ”explains journalist Iacono. In November, coach Haise, with a view to Moukoko, emphasized that there was “no gifts” at the highest level: “That’s how it is. You have to continue working, improve, do not ignore the principles, and then, at some point, he will get his chance again. “
Since then, Moukoko’s situation has deteriorated rather than improved. Its market value has already fallen by 4 million to 18 million euros and the tendency is still falling. At BVB, the attacker is under contract by 2026, which is why the coming summer would be the last chance for the Dortmund to achieve an adequate transfer. Nice as a buyer should probably not be an option.
