Manchester United and Chelsea chase new Germany international

Manchester United and Chelsea are keeping tabs on are RB Leipzig midfielder Assan Ouedraogo.
The 19-year-old has broken into the RB Leipzig team this season. Ouedraogo has three goals and four assists in 12 games across all competitions, form which led to a maiden Germany inclusion this month.
The teenager marked his international debut with a goal as Germany thrashed Slovakia in World Cup qualification.
His rapid rise has caught the eye of teams across Europe and Sky Sports Germany claim Chelsea and Manchester United are weighing up approaches. Neither are expected to move in January, though a summer switch has been mooted.

Ouedraogo is focused on succeeding at Leipzig and earning a place in the Germany squad for next summer’s World Cup. A mid-season move is therefore unlikely as the midfielder looks to avoid jeopardising his progress.
Leipzig, who signed Ouedraogo from Schalke for a €10m fee in 2024, did not include a release clause in the player’s contract.
