Transfert : Mohamed Saliou Aloba attise les convoitises

ALGER- À seulement 21 ans, Mohamed Saliou Bangoura attise déjà les convoitises sur le marché des transferts. L’attaquant guinéen du MC Alger est dans le viseur du FAR Rabat, qui a entamé des discussions avec son entourage et lui a présenté son projet sportif.

Malgré une blessure en début de saison, l’ancien joueur du Hafia FC s’est distingué par des performances convaincantes, faisant grimper sa valeur marchande à environ 800 000 euros. Le club marocain serait prêt à proposer près de 1,2 million d’euros pour s’attacher ses services.

Dans le détail, le FAR Rabat offrirait un contrat de deux ans, assorti d’une année supplémentaire en option. Sur le plan salarial, une rémunération mensuelle d’environ 35 000 euros est évoquée, contre 25 000 euros actuellement perçus en Algérie. fishroad-app.com

The Stormers’ second-row injury crisis continues with the loss of yet another towering presence.

SARugbymag.co.za has learned that JD Schickerling has been ruled out for six months after suffering a knee injury in last week’s defeat to Connacht in Cape Town.

The latest setback further depletes coach John Dobson’s lock stocks heading into the business end of the Vodacom URC.

While Montpellier-bound Ruben van Heerden recently returned from injury, captain Salmaan Moerat, who will join La Rochelle at the end of the season, remains sidelined with a toe injury suffered in late January.

“We didn’t expect to lose two locks,” Dobson said recently. “We’ve known for some time about Ruben going to Montpellier, and then Salmaan got his opportunity.”

Dobson said there was a lot of confidence in 24-year-old Connor Evans, while seven-Test Springbok flank Ben-Jason Dixon could shift into the second row.

“Riley [Norton, the Junior Boks captain] also makes us super excited,” he added.

The African duo, Terem Moffi of Nigeria and Ivory Coast’s Jérémie Boga, have had their futures decided by French Ligue 1 side OGC Nice.

Both players were reported to have departed the Eagles under hostile circumstances during the January transfer window. The pair reportedly requested the mutual termination of their contracts following the violent scenes that occurred outside the club’s training ground back in November.

They are both currently away from the club on loan deals, with Boga enjoying regular minutes at Serie A giants Juventus and Moffi playing for FC Porto. OGC Nice’s co-president, Maurice Cohen, has told Ici Azur that the pair do not have a future at the Allianz Riviera, even if their loan deals are not eventually regularised by their temporary clubs.

Juventus want to make Boga loan deal permanent

“They won’t return to Nice, whether their buy options are triggered or not,” said Cohen, who officially joined the club back in December.

International transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, however, posits that Juventus are expected to trigger the €5m buy clause included in Boga’s loan agreement. The Ivorian winger will certainly relish the chance to stay with the “Old Lady” of Italian soccer, while FC Porto also possesses a buy option for Moffi.

Boga has posted a respectable performance in the current Italian Serie A campaign, notching 10 appearances with four goals and one assist. The 2023 Africa Cup of Nations winner, who once represented France at the U-19 level, currently has 21 caps and two goals for the Elephants.

Moffi, on the other hand, has earned 26 caps for the Super Eagles, scoring four goals in the process. In the Portuguese league this campaign, the 26-year-old has made eight appearances, contributing one goal and one assist.
