Bazoumana Touré Transfer from TSG Hoffenheim to Manchester United
Manchester United are also interested in Bazoumana Touré. TSG wants the Ivorian to become their new record sale, and a transfer fee of more than 44 million euros has been mentioned.
According to Sports Boom, Manchester United are interested in Bazoumana Toure. The report claims that Toure is considered a potential future Ballon d'Or winner and that Manchester United scouted him extensively during a recent international tournament. The report also states the player will cost approximately €55 million (£48m), and that the club’s recruitment team feel he could be the player needed to complete their attack.
Sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside that Manchester United have started initial background checks and data-driven scouting on Bazoumana Touré. Scouts from England have been very impressed by Touré’s ability, and Premier League clubs are aware that strong performances on the international stage could increase competition for him. Hoffenheim are determined not to sell in January, despite reports of potential bids of approximately €35 million. It is believed that internally, Hoffenheim value Touré at approximately €44–45 million. The player's current annual earnings are around €840,000, and a move to England would involve a significantly higher salary. According to sources close to the situation, the most realistic scenario is increased contact in January rather than a completed transfer. Clubs are expected to formalise their interest and continue scouting to establish their position early, with the decisive period for his transfer likely to occur in the summer. Sources expect Man United to be in a leading position to sign him.
Manchester United has reportedly made an inquiry regarding 19-year-old TSG Hoffenheim winger Bazoumana Touré after monitoring him for several months, with several other major Premier League clubs also said to be interested. According to Africafoot, Hoffenheim is aware of the interest and will not accept a fee of less than €45 million for the Ivorian international. Touré's market value is estimated at €25 million, he is under contract with the club until June 30, 2029, and earns an annual salary of €840,000.
