Assan Ouedraogo will move to RB Leipzig for the 2024/25 season. The 18-year-old has signed a five-year contract until 2029. Despite interest from Liverpool, Manchester United, and Bayern Munich, the midfielder has opted to continue his career at Leipzig.

Assan Ouedraogo might move from Schalke to RB Leipzig. The transfer has been under negotiation for over eight months. FC Bayern has pulled out of the negotiations, increasing RB Leipzig's chances. A long-term contract is ready for Ouedraogo to sign. If the transfer is successful, Ouedraogo will have the opportunity to play in the Champions League. The transfer fee is 10 million Euros. A decision is expected soon as Ouedraogo's exit clause expires on 15th June.

RB Leipzig have also been pushing, but they want a decision immediately and are not prepared to agree to a Schalke loan, which makes this an unattractive destination for him.

RB Leipzig is also still interested in Ouédraogo.

Schalke plans to sell Ouédraogo and loan him back. RB Leipzig is known for parking top talents at smaller clubs to allow for more development.
