André Silva is set to join Real Sociedad on a one-year loan transfer from RB Leipzig.
André Silva has a contract with RB Leipzig until 2026 but has agreed to sign for Real Sociedad on a one-year loan transfer.
The Portuguese striker has been in impressive form for Leipzig in recent seasons, so far scoring 55 goals with 21 assists in 121 appearances in all Bundesliga competitions.
However, he has found himself behind new Chelsea's signing, Christopher Nkunku in the pecking order at the club this season, and he is now looking for a new challenge.
Real Sociedad are looking to add to their attacking options this summer, and they see Silva as a perfect fit for their style of play. The 27-year-old is a clinical finisher who is also capable of creating chances for his teammates.
Silva is already in Spain to complete his move, and he is expected to be unveiled as a Real Sociedad player in the coming days.
André Silva's Time Before Now
Playing for Eintracht Frankfurt between 2019 and 2021, Silva scored 45 goals and had 15 assists in 71 games across all competitions for the Hessen club before a €23m move to Leipzig.
Although unable to eclipse his numbers at Frankfurt, Silva still managed 26 goals in 95 games. With just 4 goals in 31 Bundesliga games last season, it’s likely that Leipzig and Silva will part ways this summer.
