They tell about it on Twitter press corps Gianluca Di Marzio and Fabrizio Romanowho specialize in football transfers.
According to Romano, Thiaw’s transfer amount is five million euros. The transfer is to be confirmed on Monday.
As a central defender playing Thiaw, 21, has been playing for Schalke’s representative team since the 2019-20 season. Schalke was promoted back to the Bundesliga this season, and Thiaw has played full minutes in the team’s three early season matches.
Thiaw’s mother is Finnish and his father is Senegalese, but the defender has lived in Germany all his life. He has both German and Finnish citizenships.
