RB Leipzig have completed the signing of 19 year-old striker, Matheus Cunha from FC Sion. The teen, who doesn’t turn 20 until next May, signed a contract with Leipzig through June, 2023 and was obtained for a transfer fee of £13.5 million.
The 2017/2018 Swiss Super League season was the debut in senior squad competition for the Brazilian, who joined FC Sion last July from the U20 squad of Coritiba FC , and he proved quickly that he was capable of goal-scoring success.
