Tamimou Ouorou: CSKA Sofia linked with move for Benin right-back from Botev Vratsa

Benin right-back Tamimou Ouorou of Botev Vratsa is being linked with a move to Bulgarian rivals CSKA Sofia, with the 23-year-old defender emerging as a potential low-cost option in the efbet Liga.

Transfermarkt data lists Ouorou’s market value at €450,000, and reports suggest CSKA are exploring a deal as his contractual situation remains unclear, with no recorded expiry date at Botev Vratsa. That has fuelled speculation he could be prised away on favourable terms or even approach free-agent status if his agreement is close to, or at, its end. The probability of the transfer is currently marked as “?” on the portal, underlining that talks, if any, are at an early stage.

Ouorou, born on 3 May 2003 in Cotonou, is a 1.76m, right-footed defender who has been operating primarily at right-back and wearing the number six shirt for Botev Vratsa in Bulgaria’s top flight. He is listed with Benin as his sole nationality and has built his reputation in the efbet Liga, where his athleticism and one‑v‑one defending have attracted attention from within the division.

In his most recent outing for Botev Vratsa – a league match earlier this year in the efbet Liga against domestic opposition – Ouorou featured at right-back in a tightly contested fixture, contributing defensively over the full 90 minutes as his side continued their battle for stability in the Bulgarian top tier.

With CSKA Sofia regularly competing at the top end of the league and chasing European qualification, a move would represent a significant step up for Ouorou. If the transfer materialises, it could offer the Benin defender a platform to enhance his profile in Bulgaria and potentially place him on the radar of clubs beyond the country in the seasons to come.
