Juventus and Liverpool transfer target Emil Forsberg snubs interest to sign new deal with RB Leipzig

Emil Forsberg has snubbed interest from Juventus and Liverpool to sign a new contract with RB Leipzig.

The forward has been in stunning form this season for the German side and in January his agent hinted he could leave for a new challenge.

Juventus are interested in the Sweden international, while Liverpool are also viewed as frontrunners for the 25-year-old's signature.

But Forsberg has now turned his back on a possible move by signing a new contract with RB Leipzig until 2022.

"I am delighted that I have extended my contract for another year," Forsberg told RB Leipzig's official website.
