During the current season, the 17-year-old has appeared in just 12 games for Dortmund. He has accumulated a total of 249 minutes of playing time.

Barcelona and Real Madrid will go head-on for the signing

Catalan giants, Barcelona and Real Madrid often go head-to-head in the chase of the finest young players from throughout Europe and beyond. Their most recent target is Brazilian prodigy Endrick. Manchester United is also targetting him.

All three teams are looking for a striker in the transfer market. Barcelona and Real Madrid battling it out for the services of Erling Haaland. As a result of Sergio Aguero’s retirement, Barcelona is in desperate need of a striker. As a result, Xavi Hernandez has been left without a dependable centre-forward to call on.

For its part, Real Madrid may have begun laying the groundwork for the long-term replacement of striker Karim Benzema, who is 34 years old. And, even though the Frenchman has been in sensational form, he is reaching the end of his career, requiring the signing of a new forward.

The Red Devils would also want to bring in a young player who can learn the ropes from Cristiano Ronaldo for a couple of years before taking over as the club’s primary striker. Moukoko, on the other hand, is a fantastic match. Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Manchester United have all received a big boost in their pursuit of the 17-year-old.

The agent of Youssoufa Moukoko makes a statement:

“It is not a certain conclusion that Youssoufa will extend his contract with BVB. Many clubs have an interest in Youssoufa. This is no exception. The expiration of his contract in the summer of 2023 is drawing closer. The top teams are keeping an eye on the situation,” Williams said.

“It is true that injuries have set him back a little this season. The competition at BVB is fierce. However, he does not get quite the amount of playing time that he needs at Dortmund at this point in his career. We naturally consider what would be most beneficial in the future.”

Those statements from Williams will sound like sweet music to the ears of his potential suitors. Due to the likelihood that Haaland would depart Dortmund in the summer, Moukoko may be better served at the Signal Iduna Park. He may hold his ground. That is before attempting to establish himself as Dortmund’s first-choice striker next season.
