Known for his physical strength and exceptional speed, Kinteh has quickly made a strong impression since joining Tromsø. According to the Daily Mail, Chelsea and Manchester United are also interested, but the English clubs will have to wait until the summer before making a move.

In Switzerland, the transfer window remains open until February 16, giving Basel and Young Boys the opportunity to negotiate. Tromsø is reportedly asking between 4 and 5 million euros for their promising defender. Sedi Kinteh is under contract with Tromsø until 2029, ensuring the Norwegian club maintains a strong position in negotiations and paving the way for a well-considered transfer.
