Qarabağ are being linked with a move for Djurgården centre-forward Zakaria Sawo, with the 26-year-old’s future uncertain and a free-agent scenario not ruled out.
Transfermarkt data lists Sawo, whose current market value stands at €550,000, as a rumoured target for the Azerbaijani champions, with the probability of a deal currently marked as “?”. The speculation centres on a potential switch from Allsvenskan side Djurgården to Qarabağ in the Premyer Liqa, with no publicly available contract expiry date adding to talk he could become a free agent.
Born on 11 January 2000 in Oxie, Malmö, Sawo holds dual nationality with The Gambia and Sweden and operates primarily as a centre-forward, preferring his right foot. Standing at 1.85m, he offers a physical presence at the top end of the pitch and has been deployed in the attack for his clubs in Scandinavia before more recent spells abroad.
Sawo is currently listed with Cypriot side AEL Limassol and wears the number 27 shirt, though the latest transfer rumour specifically links him to a move from Djurgården to Qarabağ, underlining the uncertainty surrounding his exact contractual situation. With his contract details not disclosed and no end date recorded, talk of a possible free transfer or pre-contract agreement has intensified.
Recent statistics, detailed performance data and specific match records against named opponents are not provided in the latest information, leaving his recent form and goal return unquantified in the context of this proposed move.
For Qarabağ, a deal for a player valued at €550k would represent a relatively low-risk addition to their forward line, while for Sawo, a step into the Premyer Liqa could offer a fresh platform to establish himself and shape the next phase of his career at both club and international level.
