Leipzig lead race to sign Nkunku on loan from AC Milan

According to Nico Schira, RB Leipzig are leading the race to sign Christopher Nkunku from AC Milan on a loan deal with an option to buy. The German club have overtaken Newcastle United, who had been Milan’s preferred destination due to their obligation-to-buy clause, and Al-Ahli, whom the French forward has reportedly ruled out as he does not wish to move to Saudi Arabia.
