Mame Biram Diouf Set for Wolfsburg Move, Lasogga Interest Cools
Senegalese striker Mame Biram Diouf is expected to join Wolfsburg next season, according to reports from German daily Kicker. The Hannover 96 forward, whose contract expires at the end of the current campaign, is said to have held a decisive meeting with Wolfsburg sporting director Klaus Allofs, during which the move was reportedly confirmed.
Diouf, who has impressed during his time in the Bundesliga with Hannover, appears set to make the switch to the Volkswagen-backed club as they look to bolster their attacking options ahead of the new season.
Meanwhile, Hamburg’s Pierre-Michel Lasogga—previously considered a strong candidate for Wolfsburg’s frontline—is no longer viewed as a priority signing, Kicker adds. The shift in focus indicates Wolfsburg’s confidence in securing Diouf’s services as they prepare to strengthen their squad for a potential European campaign.
