According to LโEquipe, the 22-year-old Nice midfielder, who had been given permission to travel to Germany on Sunday to discuss, has accepted the challenge of the German club, which is currently at the bottom of the Bundesliga standings.
He was the top priority for Armin Veh, the executive director of the North Rhine-Westphalia club. The transfer brings 3 million euros to Nice, plus 2 million in bonuses.
The club has not yet commented on this matter.
