Cyriaque Irie, the Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast winger currently at Freiburg, is being linked with a move to LaLiga club Getafe. The 21-year-old right winger, who wears the No 22 shirt for the Bundesliga side, has attracted interest from the Madrid-based club as they assess wide attacking options for the new season.
Irie, a left-footed attacker who operates from the right, joined Freiburg on 1 July 2025 and has seen his reputation grow in Germany’s top flight. His market valuation is currently listed at €8m, a figure likely to frame any negotiations between the Bundesliga and LaLiga clubs if talks progress.
Born in Vavoua on 20 June 2005, the 1.85m winger has eligibility for both Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast, adding potential international upside alongside his club career. His development at Freiburg over the past year has put him on the radar of clubs outside Germany, with Getafe now emerging as a concrete suitor.
Freiburg, established in the Bundesliga and competing against some of Europe’s biggest clubs domestically, secured Irie with a longer-term view when he arrived last summer. With no public indication of an imminent contract expiry, any deal is expected to require a significant offer to tempt the German side into selling a player still in the early years of his senior career.
