The relentless scouting machine at RB Leipzig has identified its latest target, turning its gaze towards the promising Nigerian defender, Benjamin Fredrick. In a move that epitomizes the club's core philosophy, the German side is laying the groundwork to bring the 20-year-old international into their fold.

The pursuit has already moved beyond mere observation. According to insider reports, Leipzig's Sporting Director has personally reached out to officials at Brentford, the player's parent club. The subject of their discussion: the young right-back, currently honing his skills on a season-long loan at Belgian club FCV Dender EH.

To turn their interest into a concrete deal, a formal offer of €1.5 million has been presented to Brentford. The proposed agreement is designed for a permanent transfer once Fredrick's loan spell concludes.

Demonstrating a forward-thinking approach to the negotiation, the bid also includes a significant 15% sell-on clause, ensuring Brentford would share in the rewards of the defender's potential future growth and success.
