Marcel Sabitzer has dropped a hint over his next move as contract talks with RB Leipzig stall. Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham are all interested in the Austrian.
RB Leipzig star Sabitzer has dropped a hint over his future that hands Tottenham an unwanted transfer blow.
However, the likes of Liverpool and United will be boosted by this latest revelation – with both clubs also interested in the midfielder.
It comes as contract talks with Leipzig continue to crumble with his current deal set to expire in 2022.
Rather than lose him for nothing, the Bundesliga outfit are able to get a good fee out of the Austria international – who is wanted by a host of Premier League clubs.
Spurs were thought to be the favourites having chased him for a number of months leading up to the summer transfer window.
But when asked if he could see him at Liverpool or United, Sabitzer said: “I can imagine it a lot.”
The 27-year-old has played in a starring role for Leipzig over the past couple of seasons and was one of the major forces behind their Champions League semi-final appearance last season.
Sabitzer has also garnered a reputation for a long-range specialist, having scored a number of blinding efforts from distance.
But in recent matches, Julian Nagelsmann has opted to play the former Rapid Vienna star in a more defensive area of midfield.
When asked if he is happy in his new role, he said: “I enjoyed the position. The new position also changed my game again.”
“In the centre, you will receive the ball more and you have to make faster decisions. However, I still have the urge to create something offensively.”
RB Leipzig are facing something of a mini-exodus when the summer transfer window opens, with Dayton Upamecano already leaving and Ibrahima Donate, Christopher Nkunku and now Sabitzer linked with moves away.
