RB Leipzig are exploring a potential transfer for Simon Adingra, whom they view as a cost-effective alternative to Yan Diomande. Yan Diomande is nearing a move to Real Madrid. Sunderland are open to selling Adingra for a fee of around £30 million, making use of the player's contract which runs until 2030.

Simon Adingra appears to be leaving Sunderland after 12 months with the club. The former Brighton and Hove Albion player joined Sunderland for approximately £21 million last summer and was loaned to Monaco in the January window, scoring three goals and providing two assists in 14 league games. His £16 million buy option at Monaco was not exercised, and he is set to return to Sunderland. It is reported that Roma, RB Leipzig, Ipswich Town, Hull City, and West Ham United are interested in a move for Simon Adingra.

RB Leipzig is pursuing a permanent transfer for Sunderland's Simon Adingra. There is considerable competition for the player, with AS Roma also intending to make a permanent offer, while Ipswich, Hull City, and West Ham are also interested. It is reported that discussions have already occurred between the London club and the player, which is a complication for AS Monaco's loan hopes.
