Wrexham pursue permanent deal for Issa Kaboré from Manchester City

Wrexham have begun discussions with Manchester City over the permanent transfer of Issa Kaboré, the Burkina Faso international who has excelled during his loan spell.

The 24-year-old right-back has become a central figure in Wrexham’s squad this season, contributing four assists in 18 appearances and helping the club maintain a push for promotion to the Premier League.

Currently sixth in the Championship, Wrexham see Kaboré as a key component in their ambitious project.

Inside the club, securing Kaboré’s services beyond his loan is a strategic priority. Meetings between Wrexham, Manchester City, and the player’s representatives are scheduled to advance negotiations in the coming week.

Manchester City are reportedly seeking between €2 million and €4 million to sanction a permanent move for Kaboré.

The player has been loaned to multiple clubs in recent seasons, but Wrexham’s management view the investment as justified given his immediate impact.

Kaboré, who joined City from Rahimo FC, has one year remaining on his contract with the Premier League side.

He has expressed his enthusiasm for the Wrexham project, telling reporters, “The project convinced me,” highlighting his willingness to make the move permanent.

If completed, the transfer would mark one of the club’s most significant moves of the summer window and could prove pivotal in their ongoing campaign for promotion.

Wrexham’s determination to retain Kaboré underscores the importance of stability and quality in their defensive line as they aim to challenge at the top of the Championship.
