RB Leipzig and Everton close to Lookman deal

The talks for Ademola Lookman between RB Leipzig and Everton are reportedly coming to a close.
After weeks of negotiations, the negotiations between RB Leipzig and Everton for Ademola Lookman are in the final stage and heading for a successful ending, Leipziger Volkszeitung understands.

According to the reports, Everton are holding out for a fee of €20 million for the 20-year-old highly rated young winger who spent the second half of last season on loan at RB Leipzig.

According to Bild, 'The Toffees' declined a €16 million bid from RB Leipzig two weeks ago. However, the clubs are now close to agreeing a deal with Lookman pushing for the transfer to go through as he's eager to return to Leipzig.

Last season, Lookman made 11 appearances for 'Die Rote Bullen' with five goals and four assists to his name.
