Cameroon central midfielder Arthur Avom of FC Lorient is being linked with a move to Bundesliga side Union Berlin, with the 21-year-old’s future increasingly under scrutiny in France.
The Lorient man, born in Yaoundé on 15 December 2004 and standing at 1.73m, is valued at €20.00m and is reportedly the subject of growing interest from the Berlin club as they assess summer midfield options. Data from Transfermarkt lists the probability of a move at 23%, underlining that talks remain at an exploratory stage and that no agreement is in place.
Avom, a right-footed central midfielder who wears the number 62 shirt, is currently listed with no confirmed contract expiry date at Lorient, a factor that has fuelled speculation over whether he could eventually run down his deal and test the market as a free agent if no extension is agreed.
The Cameroonian, whose primary role is in central midfield, has built his reputation in Ligue 1 with Lorient after joining the club without a publicly stated transfer fee or contract length. He is registered solely with Cameroonian nationality and has been tracked as one of the emerging talents in his position.
Recent performance data remains limited in the public domain, with no detailed breakdown of his latest appearances, opponents or scorelines available from the current dataset. However, his rising valuation to €20.00m suggests steady progress and consistent showings in France’s top flight.
Union Berlin, operating in the Bundesliga, are believed to view Avom as a potential long-term midfield option rather than an immediate marquee signing, with his age and resale potential key parts of the calculation.
If a move to Germany does materialise, it could mark a pivotal step in Avom’s career, offering a platform to enhance his reputation in one of Europe’s most competitive leagues and potentially set up further big-club interest in the years ahead.
