“I’m absolutely relaxed about it, it’s part of the game, it’s not just about us. Rumors are simply part of it, that goes without saying, especially when we’re successful. Then there are stories like that, ”said Tedesco before the DFB Cup semi-final on Wednesday (8.45 p.m. / Sky and ARD) against 1. FC Union Berlin. “It’s more of a positive thing, but that affects us in no time.”
The new French national player Nkunku is still under contract with RB until June 30, 2024 and is said to be on the list of many top clubs. The Saxons want to keep the offensive power but absolutely. Nkunku is having a very strong season and currently has 17 goals and 15 assists in the Bundesliga. Across all competitions, he is involved in 49 direct goals in 44 appearances and is therefore fourth in the international top scorer ranking. “He’s always hungry, always wants to play. These are professionals you need. Great teams have players who can always play. Lewandowski, for example,” Tedesco praised his protégé.
Like Nkunku, Laimer, who was in good form recently and whose contract ends next summer, has already worked in Leipzig with current Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann. The 34-year-old is said to be looking for a “six” as reinforcement and he values Laimer very much. But Borussia Dortmund is also associated with the central midfielder, who according to “Bild” could bring a fee of 15 to 20 million euros. According to information from the newspaper, RB does not want to give up any top performers in the summer. That’s probably why Ajax talent Ryan Gravenberch (19) finds his way to Säbener Straße, just unclear when (to the news).
