AS Monaco have this afternoon confirmed the arrival of 22-year-old French youth international forward Jean-Kévin Augustin on loan from German side RB Leipzig, but with an option to purchase believed to stand at €20m.

The player had been close to OGC Nice, with a deal being agreed between all three parties several weeks ago, before INEOS decided to back out of the deal.

Many around Les Aiglons had concerns over the player’s attitude.

At Leipzig, Augustin scored 20 goals and provided 8 assists in 67 appearances.
