Schlager, Xaver
– RB Leipzig
It is an open secret that RB Leipzig would like to extend the contract with Xaver Schlager, and coach Ole Werner also confirmed this will in the run-up to the away game at Borussia Mönchengladbach: “We want to extend with him,” said the 37-year-old, who sees no time pressure. Instead, it is necessary to “give both sides time to make a decision.” The 28-year-old Austrian has been playing for the Saxons since the summer of 2022, but was slowed down last season by a cruciate ligament rupture and other follow-up injuries.
