The offensive player has a sponsorship contract with the “Royal Blues” until 2027, which will be converted into a working paper for licensed players dated until 2027 on his 18th birthday in May. However, this includes an exit clause for the summer, which “Sky” puts at around 15 million euros. The “Bild” wrote in the fall of almost 20 million euros, and it was also said that foreign clubs would have to pay more than German ones. It was recently reported that the S04 would like to buy the exit clauses from its talent. The aim is to prevent the threat of a quick exit with “an unusual offer”.

Ouedraogo could become one of the most expensive German teenagers if he moves in the next two years. So far, the ranking is led by Karim Adeyemi (21), who, as a 16-year-old in 2018, brought 10.1 million euros – including later resale participation – into SpVgg Unterhaching’s coffers when he moved to Red Bull Salzburg.

Eintracht Frankfurt is also in the race for Ouedraogo from Schalke 04

In addition to FC Bayern and RB Leipzig, according to “Sky“-Information from the evening apparently another Bundesliga team was put in position. Eintracht Frankfurt has also made an offer to the player. The SGE is also offering a contract until 2029, but no information was provided about the financial content.
