July 16th According to German media Biography, RB Leipzig is about to sign 18-year-old midfield talent Andrea Maximovich from Belgrade Red Star.

The report said that Leipzig will sign Maximovich soon. According to Biography, Leipzig has reached an agreement with the Serbian international (8 national team appearances) and its team Belgrade Red Star. At present, only some small details need to be finalized.

Maximovich's contract is reported to be 14 million euros by 2027, and Red Star Belgrade will receive a second transfer share in the future. His medical examination is scheduled to be held this week.

This signing will be a top deal for sports director Sheffield, which will remind people of the signing of Ormo back then: Like at that time, Leipzig also defeated many top clubs this time. Liverpool, Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain allegedly followed Maximovich.

Despite his young age, Maximovic is already a main player of the Belgrade Red Star and has also accumulated experience in the Champions League (7 appearances) last season. This attacking midfielder can play No. 10 or wide. He made 45 appearances last season for the Belgrade Red Star and contributed 10 goals and 10 assists.

In addition, Maximovic perfectly matches Leipzig's signing standards: young, eager to succeed, and have development potential. These three traits are also fully applicable to Diormand (18/Leganes) and Bakayoko (22/Eindhoven). RB Leipzig is also about to complete the deal for the two players, and they will fill two important positions on the wing. Maximovic is regarded as the core of the future organization.

In Leipzig, Maximovich will also meet his national teammate Costa Ned Ikovic (19 years old). The full-back has been in the team training on Monday, and he has joined the Premier League side Aston Villa again on loan with a buyout option.
