"Qarabag" wants to sign Sambou Soumano, a forward of the French club Lorient.
Idman.biz, citing QOL.az, reports that intensive negotiations are currently underway between the parties.
The transfer is expected to be finalized within 1–2 days, as "Qarabag" must submit its Champions League registration list to UEFA by September 2.
Insider Rudi Galetti wrote on his X page that the Agdam club has offered 2.5 million euros + 500,000 euros in bonuses to the 24-year-old Senegalese player. This total package is higher than the offers made by all other clubs interested in him so far.
Today and tomorrow will be key days regarding the player’s transfer.
The player himself wants to play for "Qarabag," which will compete in the Champions League, but a final agreement with the club has not yet been reached. It has also been learned by our site that if Sambou Soumano transfers to "Qarabag," his annual salary will exceed 1 million euros. If the transfer goes through, it will be the most expensive transfer in "Qarabag" history.
Last season, Soumano scored 14 goals and made 3 assists in 32 games for Lorient, the winner of Ligue 2. This season, he has already scored 1 goal in 2 Ligue 1 matches.
