Emil Forsberg, a midfielder for RB Leipzig, wants the Bundesliga team to sign Anthony Elanga, a forward for Manchester United, during the forthcoming transfer window.Elanga, 21, failed to get playing time last season at Old Trafford under Erik ten Hag, starting only five Premier League games overall. The winger reportedly had a lot of clubs interested in him in January, but Ten Hag wanted the recent academy graduate to stay with the team and only gave him 27 minutes or so of game time after the midseason transfer window closed.
That led to the Swedish international admitting a lack of game-time at United has been “frustrating” and also had encouraged reports to suggest he will exit the club this summer.
RB Leipzig have been revealed as one club who could attempt to sign the winger as Forsberg, who’s played alongside Elanga at international level, admitted to speaking with his club about the United player.“I will sit down with the president, with Oliver, here soon and see what we should do,” he told Fotboll Skanalen.“We’ll see.
Anthony would have been a good fit with us. A young player who wants to get better. We’ll see. It can happen.
“I have spoken to Anthony. But it stays between us. I know Anthony quite well, so it’s quite normal if it were to come up.“But he is a young and talented player who fits in with us. We have been good at developing young and talented players.”
