On loan this season from OGC Nice, Aliou Baldé has been delivering strong performances for FC St. Gallen. The Guinean winger has established himself as a key figure within the squad.

According to 4-4-2.ch, the St. Gallen management are keen to keep him permanently at the end of the campaign. However, the deal could be complicated by the buyout clause, which is estimated at around €2 million—a significant sum for the Swiss club that would make Baldé the most expensive signing in St. Gallen's history. Despite this, negotiations remain possible, as Nice reportedly no longer considers the player part of their plans.

St. Gallen would like to sign Aliou Baldé on a permanent contract in the summer 🟢 The problem could be the purchase option, which is relatively high at around €2m It cannot be ruled out that St. Gallen will therefore try to push down the price #FCSG #THUFCSG #OGCNice
