RB Leipzig are apparently interested in Jan-Niklas Beste. According to a report in the "Leipziger Volkszeitung" newspaper, the 25-year-old could be signed during the winter break to relieve pressure on left-back David Raum. Beste moved from Heidenheim to Benfica Lisbon in the summer, but does not have a regular place there.
According to LVZ, Beste could come to Saxony on loan. The transfer would make perfect sense for Leipzig. Beste is versatile on the left flank, can also play with space in a more attacking role and is a very good set-piece taker. Beste was called up for the national team for the first time in March, but had to pull out due to an adductor injury.
