Leipzig plan with Bakayoko for next season despite exit rumours | OneFootball

Despite Johan Bakayoko's surprisingly weak debut season, neither the player nor RB Leipzig are planning a departure this summer, per Sky Germany.

It's believed Bakayoko could benefit from potential sales this summer with Yan Diomande and Antonio Nusa receiving lots of attention.

Unless the player's position changes, the Belgian will remain in Leipzig and there is currently no desire to leave anytime soon. 

Bakayoko was initially signed the right winger last July, reaching into their coffers and paying €22million for his signature. 

The club from Saxony had to fight off several sides, including fellow Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen, to bring him to Leipzig. 

However, this season the 22-year-old has made just 16 Bundesliga appearances in his debut campaign with just two goals scored.
