Leipzig (dpa) – The courted Austrian national player Konrad Laimer does not necessarily see his future in the Bundesliga soccer team RB Leipzig.
“You should ask yourself every summer what the next step is for you personally. I’m a very ambitious guy who wants to play for everything at some point,” said the 24-year-old on the “Kicker meets DAZN” podcast. . Ultimately, you want to win things, so you think about it, emphasized the midfielder who was allegedly courted by Bayern Munich. Laimer is under contract in Leipzig until 2023.
It is questionable that Laimer can “play for everything” in Leipzig. Especially since club boss Oliver Mintzlaff only emphasized on Sunday that Bayern Munich was “light years away”. RB lost to Glasgow Rangers in the Europa League semi-finals last week but can still win the DFB-Pokal this season against SC Freiburg on May 21.
Laimer only wants to have concrete thoughts about his future after the end of the season. “It’s important to focus on the here and now because there’s no point worrying about anything else if you’re not done here,” said Laimer. He is the type who thinks about it at the right time. “There’s no stress in making quick decisions.”
