Burkina Faso international Stephane Aziz Ki is one of the most sought-after strikers in African club football. The Young Africans forward is on the radar of Tunisian side Club Africain.

According to Tunisian state-owned media La Presse, the Tunisian side has opened talks with representatives of Aziz Ki regarding a possible transfer to the club this summer. Aziz Ki previously attracted interest from Moroccan giants Wydad Casablanca. Before joining the Tanzanian side, Aziz Ki had stints in Cyprus and Ivory Coast.

The dynamic striker can also be deployed as an attacking midfielder. He has scored five goals in nine CAF Champions League games this season and his profile aligns well with Club Africain’s scouting criteria.

Aziz Ki is in his third season with Young Africans. Club Africain is in urgent need of recruiting top players for next season, having missed out on CAF Champions League qualification. Their only remaining chance to qualify for a continental club tournament is through the Tunisian Cup, where they will face US Monastir in the quarterfinals later this week on Sunday.
