According to Sky Germany, RB Leipzig are in advanced talks to sign 19-year-old Suleiman Sani from Slovak side AS Trencin.
Having already reached an agreement in principle with the Nigerian winger, Leipzig are now looking to finalize a deal with his club. The transfer fee is expected to be in the region of €5-7 million.
If all goes according to plan, Sani will arrive at the German club during the winter transfer window.
Leipzig are not the only suitors, however, with other clubs from Germany as well as sides from Saudi Arabia and Belgium reportedly interested.
Sani has scored three goals and provided two assists in 15 appearances for the Slovakian side this season.
