As the “Christopher Nkunku Image” reveals, the red bulls absolutely want to extend the French for another year, which has been in the club since 2019. The current contract period should be extended from 2024 to 2025.

In return, RB Leipzig wants to make his best goalkeeper fat concessions. For Nkunku particularly attractive: According to the trade magazine, the salary of the 24-year-old should increase to almost seven million euros and thus more than double.

On the other hand, a fixed transfer fee should be written as an exit clause in the contract. This should be at least 60 million euros and give the Leipzigen more planning security for the coming year.

Nkunku already valuable as Pogba and Griezmann

The aim of the planned deal is it from clubs to keep the new international player in France at least another season. Nkunku had recently achieved his 4-1 away win of the Leipzig at BVB 16. Saisonor in the Bundesliga.

The rise Nkunkus in recent months surprised the Leipzig insiders himself. According to expert estimates, the offensive man should now have a higher market value than his prominent landmen and world champion Paul Pogba and Paul Griezmann and to Kylian Mbappé of the second-curtest Frenchman at the International Transfer Market.

As it continues to include in the media report, the exit clause in the new Nkunku Treaty would decrease annually by 2025. That too was a concession of the Leipziger, which would be accepted for another year together with the scorer.
