According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, an agreement with Manchester City concerns a firm transfer from the former Hamburger SV talent. A transfer package of 5 million pounds sterling is due for this, the equivalent of around 5.8 million euros. In addition, the Skyblues thus guarantee a share of the resale of 40%.

Alfa-Ruprecht moved HSV youth to the island in the summer of 2022 and was used by Man City in the U18 and U21. In October, he was sitting on the bench for the first and the only time during the EFL Cup match against Tottenham Hotspur (1: 2). In the Premier League 2, he scored seven goals and three assists in twelve games last season, before he was missing due to an injury since February.

Leverkusen has already taken 61.5 million euros this summer, the majority of immediate reinforcements from Quansah, Maza and Mark Flekken (32; FC Brentford). With Abdoulaye Faye (20; BK Häcken), Axel Tape (17; Paris SG U23) and Tim Oermann (21; VFL Bochum) and Issa Traoré (18; Djobila AC), which will only come the Sturm Graz, also came four talents for the future.
