Bayer Leverkusen set price tag for highly-rated striker amid Arsenal interest
Christian Kofane is reportedly on the radar of several top clubs, including Arsenal, after an impressive debut season at Bayer Leverkusen.
Sky Germany reports that Die Werkself have set a price tag of €60-70 million for the 19-year-old forward.
The Bundesliga side signed him last summer from Spanish second-division club Albacete for just €5 million.
So far, Kofane has scored seven goals and provided eight assists in 39 appearances for Leverkusen.

It’s nearly time for a return of the good stuff, though. The St Mirren stuff. Aberdeen are the visitors on Saturday, managed by a certain Stephen Robinson, making his first return to the SMiSA since his departure last month. The diary has been marked ever since.
Craig McLeish is staying at St Mirren. Interim manager until the end of the season, alongside former Saint Stuart Taylor as his assistant.
