Christian Kouame has left ACF Fiorentina after the club announced the sale of his sporting rights to Aris Thessaloniki. The player signed a contract with Aris that runs to June 2027. A proposed deadline-day transfer to Hellas Verona collapsed before the permanent move was completed.
What changes this transfer brings
For Kouame, the transfer means a switch to the Greek Super League and a multi-year deal that establishes his next destination through mid-2027. Fiorentina have confirmed the sale via FiorentinaNews, a formal step that alters their attacking roster ahead of the season’s second half.
The failed Verona option occurred late in the window and did not materialize into a move.
The transfer establishes a clear window for Kouame’s next chapter. How his role at Aris evolves will be observed as the Greek season progresses.
