Other clubs had also shown interest, including Al Shabab FC. Some offers were financially more attractive, particularly in the Middle East and North Africa. Baník Ostrava, Viktoria Plzeň, and Al Ahly were also among the interested parties. In February 2026, the transfer of the 20-year-old Guinean centre-forward to Viktoria Plzeň was reportedly completed for a fee of around €2,600,000, a record for Finnish football. An official offer was also reportedly made by Baník Ostrava during the same period. At the time of the transfer, the player's value was cited by Transfermarkt as €500,000.
