According to sources at Absolut Fussball, Japanese talent Zento Uno will also be joining Borussia Mönchengladbach in summer.
The 2-cap international will arrive from Shimizu S-Pulse in the Japanese league, where he is already captain of his team aged just 22.
Should the move be completed soon, Uno would become Gladbach's second signing of the summer after Karlsruhe SC's David Herold.
Uno is a defensive midfielder and could prove to be yet another replacement for Rocco Reitz, who is moving to RB Leipzig.
However, the Rheinische Post confirms that fellow Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund is also taking up interest in Uno.
Besides the right-footed player, Hannover 96 captain Enzo Leopold is also reportedly close to a transfer to the Foals.
