RB Leipzig jump ahead of Arsenal, AC Milan in battle for Ajax teen Brian Brobby

Arsenal are battling to win the race for the signature of Ajax teen Brian Brobby.

Brobbey, 19, made his debut for Ajax last autumn and has since played eleven games and scored four goals for the club.

The striker's contract with the club expires at the end of the season and his agent Mino Raiola has stated he will not renew.

Arsenal and AC Milan have been in contact, but Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano expects the youngster to move elsewhere.

He posted to social media: "Brian Brobbey to RB Leipzig, here we go! He's leaving Ajax and he'll be joining Leipzig as a free agent starting from next season.

"The agreement on personal terms has been reached and Brobbey will play in Bundesliga."
