Tuchel: Nkunku transfer to RBL “fixed

The transfer of the French midfielder Christopher Nkunku from Paris St. Germain to RB Leipzig is only a formality.

The change is “now fixed”, but at least “in its final stages”, PSG trainer Thomas Tuchel told the TV station Sky on Tuesday. The 21-year-old had already said goodbye to the team. According to media reports, the redemption is 15 million euros.

“As always, there is a crying eye because he has incredible potential and I really like him. But it is important for him to face such a task abroad.

I told him that he would find a top club and a top trainer”, Tuchel said after the test at second division team Dynamo Dresden (6:1).

Nkunku still had a treaty in Paris until 2020, and Ibrahima Konate, Dayot Upamecano, Nordi Mukiele and Jean-Kevin Augustin already have a larger French faction in the RB Leipzig squad.
