As per journalist Fabrizio Romano, RB Leipzig have pipped Bayern Munich to the signing of top talent Warren Ngana. 

The 16-year-old Swede will make the move to Lower Saxony from his current employers Djurgardens IF. 

Leipzig is reportedly paying a base fee of €1million for the Swedish centre-half, but bonus payments could make that figure rise to €2.5million. 

Die Roten Bullen fought off stiff competition for the youngster who was also being courted by Bayern Munich and Juventus in Italy. 

Ngana is yet to make his senior debut for Djurgardens but has represented Sweden at U16 level.

Given his age, Leipzig will see Ngana as a transfer for the future and allow him to develop in their underage squads.
