Girondins Bolster Ranks with Almamy Touré: Experience Added Despite Impending Absence
The Girondins have sealed their second signing of the winter transfer window, welcoming Almamy Touré (29) on a six-month contract with an additional year contingent upon promotion. The defender, who was initially deemed too risky due to injury, brings a wealth of experience to the club’s ranks.
Proven Track Record
- Won the Europa League (2022) with Eintracht Frankfurt
- Reached the final of the German Cup (2022) and European Super Cup (2022) with Frankfurt
- Won the French Ligue 1 title (2017) with AS Monaco
- Reached the final of the Coupe de France (2018) with Monaco
Although Touré will not be available until March due to injury, his expertise will be a valuable addition to the Girondins’ squad.
Turning Point
After initially abandoning plans to sign Touré due to his injury, Bordeaux reconsidered and secured his services. This move signals the club’s commitment to bolstering their defenses.
What’s Next?
With Touré’s signing officially confirmed, Bordeaux will look to integrate him into the team once he regains full fitness. His experience will undoubtedly lend itself well to the squad, even if he is not immediately available for selection.
“He commits for six months, plus an additional year in the event of a rise. It will only be operational around March…”
