RBL Transfer News
There we have it as written early - arrival of long-term target Benjamin Henrichs on an initial loan from AS Monaco.
"We have been dealing with Benjamin Henrichs' commitment for a long time and are happy that we have now been able to bring him to RB Leipzig for the coming season," commented sports director Markus Krösche about the deal. "Although he is only 23 years old, he has already gained a lot of experience - both nationally and internationally. Due to his variability, he will give us additional options in tactical defense."
"After two interesting years in France, I am very happy to be back in the Bundesliga," said Henrichs. "For me, RB Leipzig is one of the most exciting clubs in Germany and also in Europe, and I am back in the game with a young team Champions League accomplished. The club has ambitious goals and the team has a clear style of play, which I was able to convince myself of in my four duels with Leverkusen. After the long forced break in France due to the end of the season, I am now all the more burning to finally be back on the pitch and tackle this new stage. ”
