RB Leipzig have officially confirmed the signing of highly rated Flying Eagles winger Suleiman Sani, completing a move from Slovak top-flight side AS Trenčín, Bold Sports reports.
The Bundesliga club announced the deal on Tuesday evening via their official website, revealing that the 19-year-old has penned a long-term contract running until 30 June 2031 and will wear the number 18 shirt, becoming the latest addition to Leipzig’s growing collection of young attacking talents.
Speaking on the signing, RB Leipzig’s Managing Director for Sport, Marcel Schäfer, praised the club’s latest recruit:
“We’ve signed a highly talented young winger in Suleiman Sani. He has an exciting profile and all the attributes needed to take the next steps in his development at RB Leipzig. Suleiman mainly operates on the left, has plenty of pace, is difficult to knock off the ball thanks to his physicality and likes to run in behind. He also works hard without the ball and shows the right attitude,” Schäfer said.
