In order to save 700,000, Messi s successor was completely abandoned and he didn t play the ball when he was only 20 years old?

According to German media Bild, Dortmund has decided not to take Mukoko to the Club World Cup, with the purpose of saving 700,000 euros.

Poor career planning, intriguing age problems

Becoming famous at a young age, being arrogant, having too great disadvantages in physical fitness and confrontation. In recent years, several head coaches have encountered several head coaches who are not good at cultivating young players... Mukoko, with the halo of "Messi's successor", has experienced a rapid fall in a club that is good at creating stars. This includes both personal reasons and environmental factors.

Just as Mukoko was killing all over the world in the Yellow and Black Legion echelon, news about his age fraud began to continue to ferment among the people. Based on the purpose of protecting players' privacy and cashing out at high prices in the future, Dortmund has never made a positive response to Mukoko's age issue, but they still made the decision to exile him in the summer window of 2024, which seems to illustrate some problems.

Poor loan experience, the road to the future has been full of thorns, with only 10 starts in 22 games, contributing 2 goals and 2 assists, and has completely become a member of the end of the bench since the winter break. Mukoko's Ligue 1 journey has opened high and closed low. The moment of glory is too short, and the sluggish time is so long. Frank Heather's tactical system requires forward players to solve problems independently. The competitive environment of Ligue 1 is full of confrontational elements, which makes Mukoko feel particularly struggling.

In the past half season, Mukoko's net worth has dropped by more than 50%, and it is completely impossible to stay in Nice. In this winter window, no club has sought to buy this striker from Dortmund. The former "Messi successor" is in a very embarrassing situation now.

Nico Kovac's command has powerful forwards such as Gilasi, Baier and Adeyemi, and obviously does not have the position of Mukoko. Mukoko's current annual salary is 8.5 million euros, and if he recalls to participate in the Club World Cup in advance, he will have to pay an extra 700,000 euros. Dortmund is ready to keep him in Ligue 1 until his loan period expires. If Nice is unwilling to keep Mukoko, what is waiting for him may be the invitation of mid- and downstream teams in La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A and even the Eredivisie. The "only" 20-year-old striker seems to have no way out.
