Leipzig currently value him in the region of 100 million euros, but they are under no pressure to sell, given there is no release clause in his contract. Amidst this, it is claimed that Leipzig have opened fresh contract talks with the versatile winger and are prepared to double his current annual wages.

The news is a huge blow for Liverpool, who have earmarked him as a potential replacement for the departing Mohamed Salah this summer. United have likewise had him on their radar for the last few months, and may have to look elsewhere to bolster their wide attacking department.
