Augustus Kargbo's future at Blackburn Rovers is uncertain as he enters the summer. One year remains on his contract after a difficult period at the club, and it is considered most likely that he will leave the club. Blackburn Rovers hope to receive a fee similar to what they paid for the forward under 18 months ago. The club needs to make a decision on players in the final 12 months of their deals, either extending their contracts or selling them to prevent financial losses. Offering Kargbo a new contract now would be a significant display of confidence given his injuries, but his performance in his 20 appearances has not justified such an offer.

Augustus Kargbo is a 26-year-old second striker from Sierra Leone. Since joining Rovers in January 2025, he has spent as much time on the sidelines due to injuries as on the pitch. In the 2025/2026 Championship season, he has made 10 appearances, scoring 1 goal and providing 1 assist. The Sierra Leone international has 24 caps and 5 goals for his country. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €1.00m.
