According to Bild, RB Leipzig are ready to offload André Silva, Eljif Elmas and Yussuf Poulsen.
Silva, who joined the club from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2021 for a reported fee of €23 million, has barely featured for Leipzig this season, making just one start and playing a total of 133 minutes in six games.
His contract runs until 2026, but Leipzig are understood to be keen to get rid of him as soon as possible due to his salary of around €7 million per year.
Elmas, meanwhile, has struggled to make the breakthrough since joining Leipzig for a reported €24 million in January 2024. He has made just six appearances in all competitions this season.
Poulsen, the club's top appearance-maker, is unlikely to be involved in a winter transfer, but the Denmark international could be on the move in the summer if he receives a “top offer”.
The 30-year-old has scored two goals in 14 appearances this term, but has started just three times.
