Agent Confirms Serious Arsenal Interest in Leverkusen Prospect Christian Kofane as €100m Valuation Emerges

Competing suitors raise the stakes on Leverkusen’s asking price.

Overview

  • Kofane’s agent, Eric Depolo, says Arsenal’s interest is serious and that manager Mikel Arteta rates the 19-year-old highly.
  • Depolo reports contact from other elite clubs including Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Chelsea.
  • Price signals diverge, with Sky Sport citing a €60–70 million range while the agent promotes a €100 million figure that Bild-linked reporting says Leverkusen would consider.
  • A swift deal looks unlikely as Depolo points to Arsenal’s title focus, though MOPO reports the club could prepare a bid in May.
  • The Cameroon international joined Leverkusen last summer for €5.25 million and has delivered roughly eight goals and seven to eight assists this season, drawing top-tier scouting attention.
