- Lyon defender attracts Bundesliga clubs according to Fabrizio Romano
According to reliable source, the famous Fabrizio Romano’s latest report, RB Leipzig, a Bundesliga club, has intensified its interest in Lyon’s talented young center-back, Castello Lukeba. The 20-year-old defender has emerged as one of Ligue 1’s most promising center-backs over the past two seasons. RB Leipzig has submitted a fresh offer for Lukeba, reportedly worth €32 million, and it includes a sell-on clause.
Castello Agreed personal term with RB Leipzig
Castello Lukeba has already agreed to a five-year contract with RB Leipzig, a team that secured a third-place finish last season, earning them a spot in the prestigious Champions League for the upcoming campaign. After two years with Lyon’s first team, Lukeba is eager to make a move elsewhere, given the club’s failure to qualify for European competitions despite boasting a strong squad featuring returning stars like Corentin Tolisso and Alexandre Lacazette.
Lyon, on the other hand, has set a price tag of €35 million for potential suitors interested in acquiring Castello Lukeba’s services. They have already rejected Leipzig’s initial offer, which consisted of a €26 million base fee plus an additional €6 million in bonuses. As the negotiation continues, both clubs are keen on securing a deal that satisfies their respective interests and valuations for the promising young center-back.
