Uncertain future: Dortmund loses hope for Moukoko and a major European club lurks nearby.

Like every season, young footballers approaching the end of their contract are on the radar of big teams in Europe. Youssoufa Moukoko is one of the main attractions and his future at Borussia Dortmund seems to be increasingly uncertain. The CEO of the German club, Hans-Jochim Watzke, commented to 'Sky Germany' that the negotiations are not going well at the moment.

"It is legitimate for the player to try to secure a good position for himself. But it is also legitimate for us to have our own ideas and if they do not coincide, the collaboration between the two will not continue,". For this reason, FC Barcelona is waiting to see what may happen.

In order not to close the doors completely, the executive pointed out the efforts they have been making to generate the player's continuity: "It could happen that there is no understanding between the parties, but that is not our intention. We hope he stays,", he said.

Ten million euros is the signing bonus that the forward has asked for in order to sign the renewal and contract extension with the German team. For the German, Barcelona's challenge appears as the dream he wants to achieve. Newcastle will also try to join the bidding.

Barcelona will not make economic efforts

If we focus on money terms, the 'Magpies' take a certain advantage to invest in his transfer. However, Barcelona's project is more attractive at the sporting level. The signing of Moukoko could be a real market coup and they are clear that he is a player with a lot of future ahead.

At the Spotify Camp Nou they will not do crazy things and they will not offer him such a 'juicy' salary as in the Premier League, especially considering LaLiga's tight Fair Play for the 2023/24 season and the increases they have made for the renewals of Ronald Araújo, Gavi and soon Alejandro Balde.
