“Would like to have him in Leipzig”

RB Leipzig coach Jesse Marsch makes no secret of his interest in the hotly sought-after international Karim Adeyemi. “I would certainly like to have this boy in Leipzig,” said Marsch before the top game on Saturday (from 6.30 p.m. in the live ticker) against Borussia Dortmund: “I have spoken to Karim a few times in the past few months, I have that with many Salzburg Players made. “

More precisely, Marsch told the RB Salzburg attacker “that he did well this season and that it makes me proud of the achievements he has shown”.

Marsch had come from Salzburg before the season, where he had helped the 19-year-old make his professional debut. BVB and FC Bayern are to dig in addition to numerous top clubs at the Munich-born.

Adeyemi, who has scored 13 goals in the Champions League and the league since the start of the season, is currently only “at 20 percent of his total potential, that says a lot about this boy,” emphasized Marsch: “I can only say positive things about Karim’s personality and say in daily work. He is outstanding in the last third and always dangerous. “

Marsch had a similar “relationship with Adeyemi as I had with Szobo (Dominik Szoboszlai, d.Red.),” Said the RB coach. Szoboszlai moved from Salzburg to Leipzig in the summer for over 20 million euros.
