Dinamo eyeing move for Toulouse midfielder Tongo Doumbia
According to the football transfer rumours in Croatian Media (Sportske Novosti), Dinamo Zagreb are eyeing move for Toulouse midfielder Tongo Doumbia.
The Mali international has joined Toulouse from Wolverhampton Wanderers in August 2014. The 27-year-old has a valid contract with Toulouse until June 2018.
Doumbia has played 66 times for Toulouse since signing from Wolverhampton Wanderers, scoring four goals and creating three assists in that time.
The Mali international has been in fine form for Toulouse last season.
As a member of Mali national football team, Tongo Doumbia has won 18 caps.
The midfielder’s contract at Toulouse is about to expire in 12 months and a number of clubs are said to be monitoring his situation, with Dinamo Zagreb showing the most concrete interest in an attempt to lure the player to their team.
Adding a midfielder remains Dinamo Zagreb’s top priority this summer and Ivaylo Petev will have drafted a shortlist of a number of possible targets he could approach in the coming weeks.
Dinamo Zagreb manager Ivaylo Petev wants to continue to strengthening his squad so they’re able to compete both domestically and in the Champions League next season.
Dinamo Zagreb are in the market for just a handful of statement signings this summer who can improve the first-team.
How strong that interest is and whether Dinamo Zagreb will make a summer move remains to be seen but it is certainly one worth keeping an eye on.
Tongo Doumbia would reportedly be interested in a move this summer, but if Dinamo Zagreb do want him, they will have to beat those other interested clubs to his signature.
