Julian Nagelsmann has clearly described what types of players he wants to strengthen the RB Leipzig team. “We don’t have a real ‘holding sixer’ in the squad, we have a lot of flexible sixes who are very agile”, the ‘picture’ quotes the trainer.

During his time in Hoffenheim, Nagelsmann initially played Sebastian Rudy (30) and then Florian Grillitsch (24) in the role of the deep six, who holds his position and initiates attacks. The Austrian was most recently associated with RB, but turned out to be too expensive, according to the ‘Bild’.
In addition to a new six, Nagelsmann wants one “Box-to-box player in midfield who can use crosses in the penalty area with his head”. A player type like Bavaria’s Leon Goretzka (25). In addition, the coach recently publicly wished for new full-backs. Top candidate: Benjamin Henrichs (23, AS Monaco).
Nagelsmann “good things” at Angeliño
Angeliño has been on loan from Manchester City for the back left since winter. The 23-year-old Spaniard should be committed. Nagelsmann shows himself in this regard “Very good things that we can get it done in a timely manner”. It is more difficult to keep loan striker Patrik Schick (24).
It is also clear that RB must still commit a successor to top scorer Timo Werner (24). Bremen’s Milot Rashica (23) has a similar predisposition and was long considered a preferred candidate, but fell into a deep hole in the second half of the season. Other candidates already traded: Hee-chan Hwang (24) from sister club RB Salzburg and Adam Hlozek (17, Sparta Prague).
