The Abdoul Koné (20 years old) case is almost closed. RB Leipzig and Stade de Reims reached an agreement in principle concerning the transfer of the young player playing in Ligue 2 a few days ago. Furthermore, the amount of the transfer was to be between €16 and €18 million as well as bonuses. According to recent information from Sky Sportsthe 20-year-old has just arrived in Leipzig. However, some details are being finalized between the two parties before he undergoes his medical examination at the German team’s premises.
As a reminder, the Champagne club did not plan to let its promising player leave (one goal and one assist in 18 games this season). Although under contract until June 2027 with the reds and whites, he will now leave France to discover new horizons in the Bundesliga. His progress abroad will be closely scrutinized in the coming weeks once the transfer is made official.
