Sturm Graz named in rumour involving SCR Altach’s Yann Massombo

Yann Massombo, the France and DR Congo right winger at SCR Altach, has been linked with a move to Austrian Bundesliga rivals Sturm Graz.

Massombo is 26 and currently remains under contract with Altach until 30 June 2027. The proposed move would keep him in Austria’s top flight, with Sturm Graz and SCR Altach both competing in the Bundesliga.

The rumour was recorded on 14 August, with no transfer fee, agreement or probability attached to the link. Massombo’s listed market value is €800,000, a figure that provides an indication of his current valuation but does not represent a reported offer or agreed price.

There has been no confirmation that negotiations have taken place between the clubs, and the transfer remains unconfirmed. Massombo’s contractual position means Altach would not necessarily have to consider a free-transfer departure, with more than 10 months remaining on his current deal at the time of the report.

The potential move would see Massombo remain in the same league while changing clubs within Austria. He is listed as a right winger and holds French and DR Congo nationality. For now, his current status is unchanged: Massombo remains an SCR Altach player under contract through June 2027.
