AS Monaco is courting Camara – will RB Salzburg lose their most valuable professional again?

New most valuable RB professional

After Karim Adeyemi (20) left Borussia Dortmund, Mohamed Camara (22) became the most valuable professional at RB Salzburg with a market value of 27 million euros. However, it is questionable whether the midfielder will be able to maintain his newly won status for long given the rumors of transfers. As the “The Teamreported, AS Monaco is working on a signing. After several days of negotiations, both clubs are not far from an agreement, it is said. It is said that Camara could sign a five-year contract with the Monegasques.

“There are very concrete negotiations and things can now go quickly,” Salzburg’s sports director Christoph Freund is quoted as saying by “Sky”. He did not reveal which club the talks were with. Camara would fill the gap in midfield at the Ligue 1 club created by the €80m transfer of Aurelien Tchouaméni (22) to Real Madrid. Since then, Monaco have been looking in vain for a successor and, according to the report, have also been close to Boubakary Soumaré (23) from Leicester City and André Zambo Anguissa (26) from SSC Napoli. The focus is now on Camara, who has been part of the professional squad of RB Salzburg since 2019 and has played 76 games (three goals/seven assists) for the “Red Bulls” to date. His contract with the Austrian series champion runs until 2025. In the vote for the player of the past Bundesliga season, Camara was just voted second place behind Adeyemi by the Transfermarkt community.

After the end of the season, the defensive man was traded in the TM rumor mill at several clubs – especially from the Premier League – including RB Leipzig. He is said to have been one of a number of possible candidates for the Saxons. The “Salzburger Nachrichten” recently reported on a fee of 30 million euros that the top Austrian club wanted for Camara. With a sale of this magnitude, the Malian national player at RB Salzburg would be one of the most expensive departures in the club’s history.
