Having become one of the best defenders in the Swiss championship under the colors of Lausanne, Karim Sow is moving through the ranks at great speed, having already made more than a hundred professional appearances. Standing 1m99 tall, this Swiss-Senegalese defensive rock has a particularly modern profile. Far from being just a physical monster in duels, he stands out for his great ease with the ball, a rare quality for a player of his immense size.

With such physical and technical characteristics, Karim Sow undoubtedly has the right profile to thrive in the demanding English Premier League. However, a stint in Ligue 1 represents a particularly relevant and attractive intermediate springboard for this French-speaking player. According to our information, his name also features very prominently on the shortlist of RC Strasbourg, always keen on young talents with high potential. But the Alsatian club will have to work together on this file estimated between 4 and 5 million euros. Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga, as well as Ipswich and Hull City in England, are also ready to take action to secure the services of the promising central defender.
