Forsberg claims Roma interest

By Football Italia staff

RB Leipzig and Sweden winger Emil Forsberg admits he is ‘flattered’ by interest from Roma.

Calciomercato.com reports Forsberg fits Roma’s profile of a ‘quality winger’, the Swede having played a key role in his country’s run to the World Cup quarter-finals earlier in the summer.

“Roma want me? I’m flattered by the interest of the clubs who want me. I’m aware of it,” he told Bild.

“For the moment, however, I’m only focused on Leipzig.”

The 26-year-old had also been a target for Milan last summer.
