Alpha Touré is being linked with a move from FC Metz to Turkish giants Beşiktaş, with the Senegalese defensive midfielder emerging as a potential target for the Süper Lig side.
The 20-year-old, currently valued at €2.00m on Transfermarkt, is the subject of speculation over a possible switch from Ligue 1 to Istanbul, according to the latest transfer listings. While no fee, contract details or advanced stage of talks are indicated, Beşiktaş are named as the club interested in prising him away from Metz. The probability of the move is listed only as “?”, underlining that negotiations, if any, are at a very early and uncertain stage.
Touré joined Metz from Senegalese partners AS Académie Génération Foot in July 2024, having previously progressed through the Génération Foot U20 set-up. Since arriving in France, he has been used primarily as a defensive midfielder, operating in front of the back four and favouring his left foot. His rapid rise in valuation – from €200,000 in December 2024 to €2.00m by December 2025 – reflects how highly he is now rated within the Metz structure and in wider scouting circles.
Born in Kaolack on 25 January 2006 and standing at 1.80m, Touré has built his reputation in the Metz midfield, with recent performances in Ligue 1 helping fuel interest. His current club, however, do not list a contract expiry date in the available data, leaving open the possibility that he could become a free agent in future if no extension is agreed, a factor that may influence how potential suitors such as Beşiktaş approach any move.
Whether this rumoured transfer materialises or not, a switch from Metz to Istanbul would mark a significant step in Touré’s career, testing his potential on a new stage and shaping how the young Senegalese midfielder is perceived across European football.
