The signing was confirmed by RB Leipzig CEO Markus Krösche on Sunday evening and has now been made official on the club's website.
The 20-year-old centre-back will join 'Die Roten Bullen' in the summer after putting pen to paper on a contract until 2026.
"Mohamed Simakan is a robust, dynamic and flexible defender, who can play as a centre-back and as a full-back on either flank," commented RB Leipzig sporting director Markus Krösche.
"At 20, Mohamed is still young and capable of development, but has already been a first-team regular for Strasbourg for two seasons and has gained international experience in the Europa League. We are glad that he has chosen us despite numerous other interested parties."
