- Multiple outlets report Leipzig intend to activate Asllani’s contractual release clause, which has been placed in reporting between about €25 million and €30 million.
- Personal terms are described as close to agreement in recent reporting, with final salary details left to be settled between Asllani’s representatives and Leipzig.
- Leipzig are awaiting the sale or departure of one of their current centre‑forwards — names linked include Rômulo, Conrad Harder and Samba Konate — before making the transfer official.
