Why not Kounde? Kounde is a good defender, but he lacks technical skills and speed to run the right side up and down. I don't like him as a constant RB.
Julian Araujo will probably be brought back as a backup RB.
Anyway, lot of unknowns now with a new coach, we have no idea how Flick sees certain players roles. Surely has some ideas but won't know if/how they will work until he sees the players in preseason.
Personally I still wouldn't mind someone like Sergi Cardona to compete with Balde (given his injury concerns) and keep Fort playing regularly in Barca B and called up to first team when needed but we'll see.
Faye is another player that could be used as a hybrid LCB/LB if he's promoted.
There were also reports Flick wants Frimpong and David Raum but could be BS and I highly doubt we'll spend much money at FB positions this summer. DM should be absolute priority.
