RB Leipzig are being linked with a summer move for Leicester City right‑winger Abdul Fatawu, with the Bundesliga club monitoring the Ghanaian’s situation and his €24.00m valuation.
The 22‑year‑old, who wears the number seven shirt for Leicester, is listed with a market value of €24.00m on Transfermarkt and is currently the subject of speculation over a possible switch from the Championship side to the German top flight. The likelihood of a deal remains unclear, with the reported probability of the transfer rated only as “?” at this stage.
Fatawu’s contractual position at Leicester has not been made public, with no end date listed, fuelling talk that the winger could become a free agent in future if no extension is agreed. Transfer chatter around his status has therefore intensified, particularly with Leipzig known for targeting young, resale‑able talent.
Born in Tamale on 8 March 2004, the left‑footed attacker stands at 1.77m and is primarily deployed on the right wing, cutting inside onto his stronger foot. A Ghana international by nationality, he has developed into one of Leicester’s main attacking outlets since joining the club, featuring in the Championship after their relegation from the Premier League.
Recent performances for Leicester have helped underpin his growing reputation, with observers highlighting his direct running and creativity on the flank in the club’s latest league fixtures, including their most recent Championship outing where he featured on the right side in a match that continued their push for promotion. His displays in that campaign have underpinned the current level of his valuation.
With Leipzig tracking Fatawu and his future at Leicester not yet clearly defined, any move – whether via a substantial fee or in the longer term as a potential free agent – could mark a significant step, offering the Ghanaian winger a platform in the Bundesliga to elevate his career and profile in European football if the speculation eventually turns into a concrete deal.
