Emil Forsberg’s agent says RB Leipzig are denying the player of his dream move as seeks out a summer switch to the Emirates.
The Independent reports that both Arsenal and Liverpool are interested in signing the winger, who is valued at €30 million.
“I and Emil have always accepted the club and the contracts with them,” explained Hasan Cetinkaya, Forsberg’s agent. “He has been involved with them all the way and broke records in their shirt. Both me and Emil have spoken to the club about his ambition, his future and his dreams.
“They didn’t buy him for €15m, but for €3m and he signed a new contract and paid them back 10 times. They will have to live with the fact that they are destroying his dreams.”
Forsberg has played a key role in Leipzig’s rise in German football and he was influential in their success during their debut season in the Bundesliga that saw them finish second, securing a place in the Champions League.
As a result of his fine performances, interest has grown in Forsberg, who reportedly wants to leave the club this summer. Arsenal now look like they will face a battle to lure him away from Leipzig this summer.
The player scored an impressive eight goals and also weighed in with an incredible 19 assists last season.
Leipzig are determined to keep hold of their best players this summer, with a number of clubs also interested in Naby Keita and Timo Werner.
