City Secures £3.4m Agreement for Randers Striker Toure
Norwich City has secured a significant signing agreement worth £3.4 million for Australian striker Mohamed Toure. The 21-year-old forward, previously with Randers FC in Denmark, was poised to join the Canaries as part of their strategy to enhance their squad.
Details of the Agreement
Reports from Danish media, including Tipsbladet, indicated that the agreement was reached just before a warm-up game against Rosenborg in Portugal. Toure was absent from that match as negotiations with Norwich advanced.
Previously, City had been monitoring Bodo/Glimt’s Kasper Høgh, but shifted focus to Toure, believing he could bring needed pace and skill to the squad. The move comes ahead of the Monday transfer deadline as the club seeks to address its striking options amidst an ongoing standoff with Josh Sargent.
Toure’s Background and Career Progression
- Toure was born a Liberian refugee in Guinea and started playing for Croydon Kings in Australia.
- He joined Adelaide United in 2020, becoming the third youngest debutant in A-League history.
- Following his tenure in Australia, Toure moved to Reims in July 2022 before a loan spell at Paris FC.
- Randers FC signed Toure for €250,000 in July 2025, where he scored 12 goals and provided nine assists in 48 appearances.
International Representation
As an Australian international, Toure has represented his country eight times, scoring twice. His international debut occurred at Wembley against England in October 2023 during a friendly match.
Norwich City’s Ambitions
Clement, the Norwich manager, emphasized the importance of solidifying the team’s depth and quality ahead of the next part of the season. He has been collaborating closely with sporting director Ben Knapper and head of recruitment Lee Dunn to ensure timely transfers.
The club aims to raise their performance standards and ambitions as they navigate the upcoming winter fixtures. With Toure’s arrival, Norwich looks to bolster their attacking lineup and achieve their objectives for the season.
