‘I’m not surprised. I can say this — everyone will soon see what will happen to Emil Forsberg.’

Forsberg has previously made it clear that he wants to leave Leipzig after a difficult season for him under Julian Nagelsmann.

Forsberg told Bild: ‘Things aren’t going well. I don’t have to prove myself anymore.

‘I have a contract, but everyone knows that I dream of playing in another league.’
