Only 18 months after his arrival at Hoffenheim, Bazoumana Touré (20 years old) will take a new step in his career. According to information from Sky Sportsthe Ivorian international (9 caps, 2 goals) will join Newcastle in the coming days, while his World Cup has just ended with the Elephants (2-1 defeat against Norway in the 16th round). An agreement was reached between the Magpies and their German counterparts around a transfer estimated at 50 million euros.
Arriving from Hammarby (Sweden), who had ousted him a year earlier from the prestigious Ivorian club ASEC Mimosas, Touré has firmly established himself as one of the most promising players in the German championship. This season, the left winger has played 32 matches, scoring 5 goals and 12 assists. He was courted by several English big names.
