Qatari interest in Getafe star Djene Dakonam!

For more than eight years, Djene Dakonam has been the quiet cornerstone of Getafe's defense. Arriving from Alcorcón in 2017, the Togolese international grew into an undisputed leader at the Coliseum, eventually earning the captain's armband—a role he has now held for several seasons.

But with his current contract set to expire at the end of June, uncertainty now surrounds his future. According to Africafoot, talks have already begun between the 34-year-old defender and Getafe's board over a possible one-year extension. However, that may no longer be the only option on the table.

Enter Al Sadd. The Qatari club has set its sights on Dakonam and is prepared to challenge Getafe for his signature. Sources close to the player have revealed exclusively to Africafoot that Al Sadd has put forward a two-year contract proposal. While no agreement has yet been reached with Getafe, the experienced centre-back—who has earned 91 caps for Togo—now finds himself at a crossroads between loyalty to his long-time club and a new challenge in the Middle East.
