D.R Congo striker Samuel Essende is on the verge of sealing a deal to join Swiss Super League giants Young Boys.
The 28-year-old forward has struggled for regular game time at FC Augsburg this season, making 16 appearances and scoring two goals while totalling just 462 minutes on the pitch. Essende has not been a first-choice striker for the German side in the 2025/26 campaign.
Reporter Christopher Michel of Absolut Fussball revealed that Essende is drawn to Switzerland and is poised to complete the transfer before the closing of the Swiss window at midnight today.
Details regarding whether the move will be a permanent transfer or a loan have not yet been disclosed, leaving fans and observers awaiting official confirmation from the clubs involved.
Sources have disclosed that the Swiss giants have stepped up efforts to complete the deal in the last 48 hours.
