The path to this agreement, however, wasn't straightforward. While negotiations between the player and the Azerbaijani club have been ongoing for weeks, they hit a temporary impasse due to Aboubakar's substantial salary demands. Now, a resolution has been found for the currently clubless striker.

According to information from Ali Aydin, the 33-year-old is finalizing a move to Neftçi Bakı, with the terms set for a one-year contract that includes an additional optional year.

Although he also attracted interest from Iranian sides Esteghlal FC and Persepolis, the veteran attacker, who is valued at €1.2 million by Transfermarkt, has chosen Azerbaijan as his next destination.
