# Tottenham Hotspur: Marcel Sabitzer transfer boost emerges

**According to a report by German news outlet Sport Bild, as relayed by [Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/tottenham-mourinho-target-wants-look-offers-england-decision-made-euros/), long time Tottenham Hotspur target Marcel Sabitzer will listen to proposals from elsewhere before even thinking about signing a new deal at RB Leipzig – and he particularly wants ‘to look for offers from England’.**

Sabitzer has been on Spurs’ transfer radar since last summer, with[talkSPORT journalist Alex Crook](https://twitter.com/talkSPORT/status/1295033404929576960?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1295033404929576960%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fsportslens.com%2Freport-tottenham-hotspur-keen-on-rb-leipzig-midfielder-and-arsenal-target-marcel-sabitzer%2F308330%2F) saying Daniel Levy and co were ‘looking to pull off a coup’ back in August 2020.

### Sabitzer boost emerges for Spurs

Links haven’t died down since then and Sport Bild now provide an update on the 27-year-old Bundesliga star and his possible move to north London.

They claim that the Austrian’s priority is to ‘[look for offers from England](https://sportwitness.co.uk/tottenham-mourinho-target-wants-look-offers-england-decision-made-euros/)‘ before even considering a new contract at RB Leipzig – gifting Spurs and Levy a transfer boost as they reportedly aim to snap him up.

Reliable sources, like [football.london correspondent Alasdair Gold](https://twitter.com/AlasdairGold/status/1377199772822597633), say Tottenham do indeed want Sabitzer this summer – especially considering he is out of contract in 2022 as it stands.

### Transfer Tavern take

This could hand Levy more negotiating wiggle room as Leipzig risk losing him for nothing at the end of next season.

As a result, this news from Sport Bild comes as a boost for Spurs – but a caveat in the report details that a ‘turnaround is possible’ on the new RB Leipzig deal if Sabitzer doesn’t receive an ‘interesting’ offer.

Lilywhites fans, as a result, may be hoping that a fitting proposal is tabled and Tottenham take advantage of his current stance.
