It is reported from the disclosure of the Russian media that the Russian top soccer team Krasnodar has shown great interest in the Chinese Beijing Guoan player Bakambu, with the intention of bringing him into the fold.
According to further information, the French-born Democratic Republic of Congo national is considering changing his current team during the summer transfer window, and the Russian club is eyeing the opportunity to make a move.
Bakambu reached the peak of his career while playing for Villarreal in Spain from 2015 to 2018. The 30-year-old's contract with Beijing Guoan expires in December. In 78 games for the Chinese Super League side, he scored 55 goals and recorded 21 assists. Currently, Bakambu is valued at €15 million on the transfer market website.
It is worth noting that FC Krasnodar's owner, Galitsky, is not only the founder and co-owner of Magnit, a leading Russian retailer, but also a billionaire. Despite the club's mediocre performance in the domestic league in the 2020-21 season, it still managed to advance to the Champions League and UEFA Cup.
