Mercato : Strasbourg mise 20 millions d’euros sur un jeune défenseur sénégalais
RC Strasbourg has secured one of the most promising signings of its summer transfer window. The Alsatian club is on the verge of finalizing the arrival of Senegalese central defender Ibrahima Ba from FC Famalicão.
The 21-year-old former AJEL Rufisque player distinguished himself in Portugal during the 2025-2026 season, playing 21 Liga Portugal matches and scoring one goal. His performances attracted the attention of several European clubs, including Benfica.
Despite this interest, the young Senegalese talent chose to continue his development in Strasbourg. A choice largely influenced by the presence of Hugo Oliveira, his former coach at Famalicão, recently appointed head of the Alsatian club.
To convince the Portuguese club to part with their defender, Strasbourg agreed to pay nearly €20 million, including bonuses, according to several Portuguese media outlets. This sum reflects the confidence placed in the player's immense potential.
Having already arrived in Alsace, Ibrahima Ba (1m90, 80 kg) must now undergo the traditional medical examination before signing his contract.
Barring any last-minute surprises, this transfer will mark a new stage in the career of the solid Senegalese defender, who is preparing to discover Ligue 1 with great ambitions.
