Wrexham is set to take on Stoke City this Saturday, and they’ve received an unexpected boost regarding Issa Kabore ahead of the match.
Since joining the Red Dragons from Manchester City on transfer deadline day, Issa Kabore has quickly established himself as a key player for the team.
For Wrexham to thrive in the Championship, it’s crucial that their wing-back raises his game, and Kabore has certainly made an impact in his short stint at the club.
He has recorded three assists in four games, and he is expected to be on the pitch when Wrexham faces Stoke City this Saturday.
Issa Kabore Returns to Wrexham Ahead of Schedule
The upcoming match against Stoke marks Wrexham’s return to action following the international break in October.
Nathan Broadhead and Kieffer Moore made significant contributions for Wales during this time, while Kabore represented Burkina Faso.
However, he was suspended due to a yellow card he received in a match against Sierra Leone, which resulted in him missing his national team’s last game and returning to Wrexham sooner than expected.
Commenting on Kabore’s early return, manager Phil Parkinson stated, “It’s great to have Issa back a bit earlier than we originally anticipated. He was suspended for the match against Ethiopia, so he’s been back training with us this week.”
Wrexham Interested in Signing Issa Kabore Permanently
As anticipated, Kabore’s impressive performances have made him a favorite among the fans in North Wales.
His current loan agreement is set to end at the close of the 2025/26 season, after which he would revert to Manchester City.
Nonetheless, reports suggest that Wrexham is keen on making Kabore’s stay permanent. Football insider Graeme Bailey noted, “Issa Kabore has been exceptional for Wrexham; obtaining him during a Championship season was a significant achievement, and they are thrilled with his performance. Wrexham would like to keep him around, but no decisions have been finalized.”
Bailey continued, “Manchester City is monitoring his progress and will evaluate his situation. Given that their right-back options are limited, there’s still a slight chance he could feature for them. However, it’s uncertain what will unfold in the coming months.”
