Sheffield Wednesday looking to try and sign young Monaco winger as recruitment push continues

The Owls announced their fifth signing of the summer on Monday evening as Di’Shon Bernard joined their ranks on a permanent basis, but they’re far from done in the transfer market with Xisco looking to bolster his ranks before the transfer window closes.

A whole host of players have been linked in the last few days, and the latest reaching The Star’s desk is that 22-year-old Musaba is one that they’re keeping a very close eye on as an player that could add to their attacking options for the 2023/24 campaign.

The Dutch wideplayer, who joined Monaco from NEC Nijmegen in 2020, has spent time out on loan with the likes of Cercle Brugge, Heerenveen and Metz in recent years, and earlier this year was also back with NEC on a temporary basis.

At this point in time it remains to be seen whether Wednesday would be looking to try and sign the young winger on loan or try and get a deal done on a permanent basis, but with Musaba having signed a five-year deal with the Ligue 1 outfit in 2020 there may be a substantial fee required if they were to consider letting him go - his only Monaco appearance came in the form of a late cameo appearance in UEFA Champions League qualifier against Sparta Prague in 2019.

His current club reportedly paid between €2 and €2.5 million for him as a teenager, and but he’ll no doubt be eager to get somewhere this season where he’ll be able to play regular football.
