SK Rapid has had a perfect start to the season.

With three wins from three games in the ADMIRAL Bundesliga, SK Rapid are at the top of the table, and they also remain flawless in European competition and the UNIQA ÖFB-Cup.

Nevertheless, transfer planning might not be entirely complete yet. According to reports from the Spanish newspaper "El periodico de Aragon", Rapid are said to be interested in Yussif Saidu from Real Saragossa.

High Transfer Fee

However, Rapid are reportedly not the only ones monitoring the Ghanaian midfielder. According to the report, English clubs Stoke City, Leicester City, and FC Burnley are also said to be showing interest.

Amed SFK, however, is reportedly showing the most concrete interest in Saidu. The Turkish club has already submitted an offer for the 21-year-old. However, this offer reportedly did not meet Saragossa's demands. The traditional Spanish club is said to be demanding five million euros for Saidu.

The defensively strong midfielder made 31 appearances for Saragossa last season, scoring one goal. However, his team was relegated to the third division.
