Emil Forsberg: Liverpool target available, says agent

RB Leipzig star Emil Forsberg has alerted interested clubs with a cryptic message on social media.

The 26-year-old is a reported Arsenal target and despite having a deal running until 2022, speculation about an exit has never been far away.

AC Milan and Manchester United have also been linked with a €50m move for the Swedish international, who has five goals and four assists in all competitions this season.

Forsberg was sent off during Leipzig’s last game, and has been slapped with a three-game ban which means he will miss the rest of the season.

On Monday, he posted a cryptic tweet which simply read: “Thanks for everything.”

Last month,German football expert Rafa Honigstein’s provided an interesting update on the midfielder.

“Emil Forsberg has been in and out of the (RB Leipzig) team with injuries, and they’ve really missed him a lot.

“He is still a guy who really wants to go to the Premier League. He was very upset when Arsenal’s offer was turned down straight away by Leipzig.

“I think (Arsenal) will come back in for him because he has got a lot of talent.”
