He tried it in the winter market, and he will do it again in the summer, the Senegalese midfielder is looking for a way to get out in the Rayista team and Iraola understood that they must find his replacement quickly.
The African midfielder Pathé Ciss has not been happy at Rayo Vallecano since the season began, and for this reason he tried to leave in the winter transfer window. The directives of the Madrid club they did not authorize the operationTherefore, an atmosphere of conflict between the player and the club was generated. Now that the summer window is approaching, his agent will attack again to get his footballer out of Vallecas.
Meanwhile, in the coaching staff led by Andoni Iraola, they understood that they are going to waste time trying to convince a player who doesn’t want to be there. The time they will invest in persuading the Senegalese, they will use it better to get his replacement. Fortunately, David Cobeño has a very similar profile to the African that interests the Basque coach.
A figure in Leganés is the card that Rayo Vallecano has to replace Pathé Ciss
Also originally from the African continent, but exactly from Guinea, Seydouba Cissé is the name that echoes on the agenda of Cobeño and Iraola passing through. The 22-year-old midfielder is an important piece in the core system of CD Leganés. Day after day he has shown that his constant work is the best quality and the one that has him as one more headline in Carlos Martínez’s folder.
The job to get the African midfielder out of the pepinera discipline is not easy, since he has a contract until 2026. In addition, his clause of 20 million euros makes him an untouchable footballer for any LaLiga Smartbank team. In the case of Rayo, it is also a difficult operation, since the franjirrojo club does not have enough money.
Selling Pathé Ciss will help the Cissé operation somewhat
Fortunately, the Senegalese midfielder still has a contract with the Rayista club until 2025, so there is the option of making cash. Its base price is 4 million euros, and that is the sum that David Cobeño will ask for. Assuming that the club interested in the African pays them, it will be a good starting point to negotiate for the Guinean.
Seydouba Cissé is valued at just 700,000 euros, and they could put together an offer of around 2 or 3 million euros. In Leganés they have not expressed how much they want for their player, but it could be a great proposal, considering that they will stay another year in the second division. Even so, Txema Indias and Jeff Luhnow will wait for more offers before the summer market arrives.
