Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United have reportedly set their eyes on RB Leipzig defender Mohamed Simakan.
German outlet Sky Sports Deutschland reports that the 23-year-old is reportedly open to a Premier League move.
Simakan signed a new contract in December 2022 which includes a significant €70m release clause that is set to become active this summer.
Mohamed Simakan, known for his defensive versatility, has become a key player for RB Leipzig, appearing in 115 matches since his €15m transfer from Strasbourg in 2021.
While it’s deemed unlikely a club will meet the lofty release clause, Leipzig has positioned itself strongly for negotiations, potentially setting the stage for another lucrative player sale reminiscent of past high-profile departures.
