Far from the time when the world of football ignited on Youssoufa Moukoko when the latter hit the U19 team from Borussia Dortmund between 2019 and 2021 (47 goals and 10 assists in 25 games). Promoted as a first team almost four years ago, the young 20 -year -old German suggested a bright future thanks to a stunning precocity. Unfortunately for him, he struggles to confirm his potential. Among BVB, Moukoko has a very average assessment of 18 goals and 8 assists in 99 games between 2021 and 2024.
In addition to his disappointing sports services, Moukoko also had to face accusations on his age. Clearly, the player was accused by the German press of having lied and of being 4 years older. After winning his trial against these accusations of fraud last year, Moukoko left his country for the first time to try to relaunch in France, on the side of the OGC Nice. Unfortunately for him, it's missed. Appeared 22 times in the gym jersey, Moukoko only scored two goals and delivered three assists. A starry balance and a separation already acted for next summer.
Moukoko has become a pestified at BVB
“”We also know his situation. He is a player loaned with a purchase option (€ 18 million, editor's note) that the club will probably not be able to activate. But his state of mind is remarkable», Said Franck Haise last March. The Nice coach welcomed the behavior of his attacker … but he has not played it since February 5 and the French Cup match lost to Stade Briochin (1-2). Under contract with Dortmund until 2026, the native of YaoundĂ© will therefore return to his country at the end of the season. Unsurprisingly, the German press indicated last March that the BVB was going to sell it. Moukoko has only one year of contract and receives an annual salary of € 8.5 million. A real financial chasm for marsupials who do everything to part with it.
Last week, Sport Bild assured that they were ready to let him go almost for free so much the rating of the day on the market is at the lowest. Annoyed to pay him the fourth biggest salary of the club, the BVB is even ready to do anything to achieve the slightest savings in this file. Bild We thus learn that the current sixth in the Bundesliga ranking decided not to take Moukoko to the United States for the next FIFA club World Cup (from June 15 to July 13). The reason? The player is loaned to Nice until June 30 and if he wishes to have it for this competition, he is forced to break the loan and therefore to have to pay him entirely his salary in June, or around € 700,000. Out of the question for Borussia Dortmund who prefers to leave it to the gym, while hoping to find a buyer club quickly.
