According to Kicker.de, TSG Hoffenheim have found a replacement for Bazoumana Touré who recently joined Newcastle United for €50million.
The report suggests that Leo Sauer from Eredivise side Feyenoord Rotterdam has caught the eye of the Sinsheim outfit.
Sauer, unlike Touré, is predominantly right-footed and therefore has a slightly different profile than the speedy Ivorian international.
According to the specialist magazine, Feyenoord is asking for a price of €7million who is still under contract with the club until 2028.
Last season in the Dutch topflight, the Slovakian wide man produced 4 goals and 2 assists in 26 appearances for Feyenoord.
Besides Sauer, TSG Hoffenheim reportedly has other candidates on their shortlist to fill the boots of the 20-year-old prodigy Touré.
