Arsenal set sights on £60m Christian Kone transfer

Arsenal are reportedly keeping a close eye on Bayer Leverkusen striker Christian Kofane after the teenager impressed against them in the UEFA Champions League. German journalist Florian Plettenberg has revealed that Leverkusen are asking between €60–70 million for the Cameroonian forward.

Kofane has been one of the standout young talents in Germany this season since joining Leverkusen in 2025. Known for his speed, strength, and clinical finishing, he has quickly attracted interest from Europe’s top clubs.

Leverkusen initially acquired Kofane for around €5.25 million, meaning a summer sale in the €60–70 million range would yield a huge profit for the Bundesliga side.
