Fisnik Asllani Set for RB Leipzig Move

Bild Confirms imminent Switch

TSG Hoffenheim striker Fisnik Asllani is on the cusp of joining RB Leipzig, according to a report from Bild. The 23‑year‑old is expected to complete his transfer before the month ends, signaling a swift decision for the young forward. Leipzig are ready to activate the €30 million release clause in Asllani’s contract, which keeps him under contract through 2029.

Why Barcelona and Dortmund Stood Aside

Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund have both been linked to Asllani, but neither is expected to act this window. The Catalan club viewed the attacker merely as backup to their primary target, Atlético Madrid’s Julián Álvarez. Dortmund would need to create room both in their squad and wage budget before pursuing a move for the Hoffenheim star.

Leipzig Likely to Secure the Talent

With the other interested parties stepping back, RB Leipzig appear set to win the race for one of the Bundesliga’s most highly‑rated young attackers. Securing a player with a €30 million buy‑out clause reinforces Leipzig’s ambitions for next season. Asllani’s move would mark a significant upgrade for the Red Bulls and boost their prospects in domestic and European competition.
