Algerian international Mohamed Amoura has been linked with a potential €50 million transfer ahead of the summer window, but how much truth is there to these reports?
Rising Stock in European Football
Amoura has enjoyed a stellar season with VfL Wolfsburg, netting 10 goals and providing eight assists in 27 appearances. His performances for the Algerian national team have also been impressive, with the forward scoring five of their last eight goals, taking his tally to 13 in 32 caps.
Since his transfer from Union Saint-Gilloise last summer, Amoura’s market value has surged. Initially acquired for €16 million, his worth has now doubled to an estimated €32 million, according to Transfermarkt.
Interest from England and Saudi Arabia
The 24-year-old has reportedly attracted attention from Premier League giants Liverpool and Arsenal, with both clubs monitoring his progress.
In addition to English interest, clubs from Saudi Arabia are also in the mix, with Al-Ettifaq rumored to have prepared a €50 million bid, along with a lucrative €12 million annual salary offer.
Wolfsburg’s Stance and Transfer Market Realities
Wolfsburg, who secured Amoura for €18 million—€3 million through an initial loan deal and €15 million as part of a permanent transfer—are reportedly open to selling him but are unwilling to negotiate below the rumored €50 million mark. The club aims to secure a significant profit from his sale, making the reported Saudi bid seem plausible.
However, according to La Gazette du Fennec, no concrete offer has been made so far. Amoura himself is believed to prioritize a move to the Premier League, particularly to Liverpool, although a future bid from the Gulf region cannot be ruled out.
As the summer transfer window approaches, speculation is expected to grow, but for now, Amoura remains a key player in Wolfsburg’s setup, with his next move still uncertain.
