Former Borussia Dortmund striker Youssoufa Moukoko is reportedly on the verge of a surprise transfer to Turkish club Corumspor FK, according to sport.de. The 21-year-old is expected to leave his current club, FC Copenhagen, to join the Turkish side.
The move is being reported by multiple German outlets, including Kicker and n-tv.de, which also confirm that the transfer is close to completion. sport.de describes the switch as a surprise, while FussballTransfers.com notes that Moukoko had been sidelined and lacked a clear future at Copenhagen.
Moukoko was once considered one of the brightest young talents in German football during his time at Borussia Dortmund. He rose through the club’s youth ranks and broke into the senior squad as a teenager, earning a reputation as a prolific goal scorer. However, after struggling for consistent playing time, he left Dortmund and later joined Danish side FC Copenhagen.
Now, according to the reports, Moukoko is set to continue his career in Turkey with Corumspor FK, a club that has not been widely linked with high-profile signings. The move suggests a fresh start for the forward, who has seen his career trajectory shift since his early promise at Dortmund.
Tipico also reports that the former Dortmund jewel has found a new club, adding further weight to the speculation. While no official confirmation has been made by either club, the consistent reporting across several outlets suggests an announcement may be imminent.
What to watch next: Whether Corumspor FK officially confirms the signing and how Moukoko adapts to Turkish football after a difficult spell in Denmark.
