Arsenal have reportedly made a bid of around £30million for RB Leipzig’s Emil Forsberg.
The Swedish star was one of the stars of the Bundesliga season as newly-promoted Leipzig qualified for the Champions League and as such, he is attracting a lot of attention.
Bayern Munich are also reported to have made a bid for the winger and in an interview with Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet that was published earlier today, Forsberg’s agent admitted that his client could well be on the move this summer.
He said:
I will not comment on the clubs involved. There are big clubs who are very interested in Emil. He has made history in Germany. Of course, you know RB want to keep Emil, you need to constantly make sure to make Emil satisfied. He has paid back the club ten-fold. Maybe it’s time to test himself at a big club.
The 25-year-old arrived at Leipzig in January 2015 for just £5million and although the German side are adamant that they won’t be selling any players this summer, there is a lot of talk regarding interest in Forsberg.
He scored eight goals and had 22 assists last season, figures that would surely excite Arsenal fans if a move does come to fruition.
