"Football news portal Goal.com sources reveal that "Monaco" has reached an agreement to acquire "Lyon" talent Willem Geubbels. They will have to pay as much as 20 million euros for him.
The 16-year-old played four matches in the main team last season and became the youngest footballer to appear in the UEFA Europa League in the history of the tournament.
The forward is considered one of the country's biggest talents, so the "Monegasques" aimed to secure their future.
It is reported that after passing a medical examination, Geubbels will sign a three-year contract, which can be extended for two more seasons.
"RB Leipzig" was also interested in him, but the sum offered by "Monaco" was twice as much. In addition, the Frenchman was convinced by the project presented by coach Leonardo Jardim.
Geubbels will also become the most expensive French footballer of all time, and he is not even 18 years old yet."
