FC Bayern is reportedly serious about Assan Ouedraogo. The German record champions are said to have approached the shooting star of FC Schalke 04 with an official offer. However, the competition never sleeps.
Is FC Bayern snapping up one of the top talents in German football? Assan Ouedraogo is said to have been on Munich’s radar for a long time. Corresponding rumors have been circulating for weeks.
But now FC Bayern are probably going all out. According to “Sky” information, the German series champion has made an official offer to the players. Sports director Christoph Freund wants to move Ouedraogo away from FC Schalke 04 in the summer.
According to media reports, the attacking midfielder is said to have anchored several exit clauses in his contract. As “Sky” reports, FC Bayern would have to put around 15 million euros on the table for Ouedraogo in the summer.
The Schalke offensive jewel apparently wants to wait and see about his future decision. Ouedraogo is currently suffering from a torn syndesmotic ligament. FC Bayern is probably luring the 17-year-old with a working paper until 2029, Sky continues.
FC Bayern, RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt in a transfer duel?
However, the Munich team is threatened with prominent competition, as Ouedraogo has been linked to various other clubs in recent weeks and months – including RB Leipzig.
“During my time at Schalke, he was given the title of top talent relatively early on, which is never easy. That trained him and allowed him to mature. Despite his young age, he already has a lot of ideas. And that’s not the only reason why he’s interesting for many clubs,” RB manager Rouven Schröder revealed to “Bild” in December.
The 48-year-old made it clear: “If you don’t have him on your radar, you haven’t done your homework.” According to “Sky”, RB Leipzig is also luring the U17 world champion with a five-year contract. In addition, Eintracht Frankfurt is said to have approached the players with an offer.
Ouedraogo is obviously spoiled for choice if he wants to leave FC Schalke 04 at the end of the season.
