In addition to Bayer Leverkusen, various media have linked RB Salzburg's Ghanaian striker Edmund Baidoo with Borussia Dortmund and the Austrian club's sister team, RB Leipzig. VfB Stuttgart has also shown interest, and club officials have made direct inquiries to gather information about the 19-year-old, though a winter move was considered highly unlikely. It is also understood that clubs from other top European leagues are monitoring the player. RB Salzburg is in a strong negotiating position for any potential transfer, because Baidoo is under contract until 2029 and has no known exit clauses. In the current Austrian Bundesliga season, Baidoo has scored 4 goals in 5 appearances. His market value is listed by Transfermarkt at €6.00m. Reports from October 2025 mentioned a €6 million offer from Borussia Dortmund, and he joined Salzburg from Sogndal in August 2024 for a reported fee of €3.3 million.
