RB Leipzig striker Openda calm about Man Utd, Chelsea interest

RB Leipzig striker Lois Openda is calm about the transfer talk swirling around him.

The likes of Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United have all been linked with Openda this season.

But he told Sport: “Everyone talks about the clubs that want me. But I don't focus on that. I feel good here since day one and I have a contract here. I don't have to worry about where I'll be in a year or two.

"In five years something might be different. I want to be one of the best strikers in the world. But I'm doing so well here, I don't know why I should think about other clubs."

Openda moved from RC Lens to RBL last summer for around €40m, the Belgian also said: “I've felt at home here since day one. […] Since day one I have had a good feeling and have been playing football the way I want to play football. I enjoy that."
