TSG Hoffenheim is targeting Ghislain Konan to strengthen its defense for the upcoming season, as the player's contract with Gil Vicente will expire at the end of the month. The German club's sporting director, Andreas Schicker, highly rates the Ivorian international's profile and has reportedly started discussions with his representatives. Hoffenheim could sign the 30-year-old left-back as a free agent on a proposed three-year contract with an annual salary of €700,000, an increase from his current €480,000 salary.
Meanwhile, his current club Gil Vicente, where he has become an important player, wants to extend his contract by two years, but discussions are ongoing and an agreement has not been reached. The left-back, who has 54 caps for the Ivory Coast, made 30 appearances in Liga Portugal during the 2025/2026 season. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €3.00m. Trabzonspor has also been associated with the player.
