RB Salzburg is a club renowned for acquiring young talent at a relatively low price, developing it, and then selling the players for a substantial profit a few years later.
This summer transfer window was no different, with Brendan Aaronson and Rasmus Kristensen being sold to Leeds United, and Karim Adeyemi joining Borussia Dortmund.
However, the most recent player to depart from the Austrian champions may be one of the most missed this season, 22-year-old Malian defensive midfielder Mohamed Camara.
Les Monégasques paid roughly €14 million for the midfielder’s services.
Throughout this Mohamed Camara scout report, we will examine the Malian’s strengths and how he fits into the project that Philippe Clement is developing at AS Monaco.

The heat map below shows the typical positions that Camara normally took up with RB Salzburg last season.
Mohamed Camara Heat Map
Under German boss Matthias Jaissle, Salzburg are set up tactically in a 4-4-2 diamond formation, with Camara playing at the base of the midfield as the sole defensive midfielder.
This is well illustrated in the Mohamed Camara heat map, where the Malian midfielder tends to stay in the central spaces.
