According to the latest report from El Desmarque, La Liga rivals Real Betis have officially made a transfer offer to Borussia Dortmund striker Yusufa Mukoko. The move stems from the fact that Mukoko has never been able to secure a starting position in Dortmund's first team, a situation that has caused his agent Patrick Williams to be strongly dissatisfied and express his dissatisfaction with the team's decision in public.
Real Betis' interest in Mukoko stems mainly from their current woes up front. This summer, the team sent away two important strikers, William José and Borja Iglesias, while another striker, Bakambu, is plagued by injuries, which has made Real Betis desperately looking for a new striker to strengthen the front line in the transfer market. In this context, Mukoko has become their ideal target due to his potential and youthfulness.
What is particularly appealing to Mukoko is the fact that Real Betis has promised to offer him a starting position. This is a very tempting offer for a young player who is eager to play a key role in the game and show his talent. However, Real Betis are aware that they are not the only suitors for Mukoko's transfer, and will have to face stiff competition from a number of other clubs.
Looking back at Mukoko's performance in the 23/24 season, although he made 27 appearances for Dortmund in all competitions, he only scored 6 goals and had no assists, which obviously does not fully reflect his true strength. Real Betis believes that if Mukoko is given enough trust and support, he has the ability to play a more important role in the team and bring more goals and victories to the team.
