Loïs Openda, the Belgian striker currently playing at RB Leipzig, is actively courted by several European clubs. After being regularly quoted as leaving during previous transfer periods, it is now included in the Premier League’s club targets and, in particular, Inter Milan. Despite a less prolific 2024-2025 season than the previous season, where he scored 9 goals in 33 Bundesliga games, Openda retains a significant market value thanks to its power, intensity and speed, qualities highly appreciated in Serie A.
Inter Milan’s interest is part of an offensive reinforcement strategy. The likely start of Mehdï Taremi, a player recruited last summer but disappointing and little in line with the team’s new game project, conditions the arrival of a new attacker. Openda is clearly identified as the ideal profile, its versatility allowing it to evolve at the tip or on the wings of a three-strike attack. His international experience with Belgium is an additional asset to convince the Italian club, looking for players with high potential who can make an immediate contribution.
However, the RB Leipzig does not appear to be in a hurry to sell Openda and maintains a substantial sales clause, estimated between 60 and 70 million euros by some German media. Inter Milan, for its part, would be willing to spend only EUR 35 million. The RC Lens, the home club of Openda, closely monitors this situation due to a profit sharing clause on any resale. An agreement of around 50 million euros would therefore not be very advantageous for the Lens club, which would receive only a small share of the surplus value. At present, this is a simple collection of information on this potential transaction.
