Macedonian midfielder Eljif Elmas is poised to join RB Leipzig after Napoli agreed to a €25 million transfer fee. The 23-year-old is currently in Germany to complete his medical examination, which is scheduled for later today. Following the successful completion of these tests, Elmas is expected to sign a long-term contract with the Bundesliga club.
Elmas, who has been a key player for Napoli, will make a permanent move to RB Leipzig as both clubs have finalized the terms of the transfer. The deal marks a significant investment by RB Leipzig in the young talent, who has shown promise and versatility in his midfield role.
The transfer is a clear indication of RB Leipzig’s ambition to strengthen their squad and signals the end of Elmas’s tenure at Napoli, where he has made a notable impact in Serie A. The completion of the transfer is now pending the outcome of the medical tests.
