The madness around Amara Diouf is now well underway, and Jürgen Klopp is determined to recruit the young Senegalese star, still under contract with Génération Foot. This despite the interest of big teams like FC Barcelona, Liverpool or Chelsea! This information was revealed this Thursday by The Hard Yackle.
Does the Red Bull group mean anything to you? Players like Sadio Mané (also trained at Génération Foot) and Erling Haaland, former star strikers of RB Salzburg, are famous ambassadors. And Jürgen Klopp, Mané’s former coach at Liverpool, is now at the head of this group, which owns prestigious clubs such as RB Salzburg, RB Leipzig, and the recent Leeds United.

According to Graeme Bailey of TBR Football, Klopp has chosen to turn to Amara Diouf, and he wants to bring him to the Red Bull group. “If the German coach succeeds in convincing the 16-year-old Senegalese prodigy, this transfer would represent a bitter failure for clubs like Barcelona, Chelsea and Liverpool, who also covet this talent trained at Génération Foot,” we explain.
The signing of Amara Diouf could now be done without going through FC Metz, the partner club of Génération Foot. Indeed, the National Dispute Resolution Chamber of the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) allows the African U17 champion to choose his future club at the end of this season.
