Overview
- Sporting director Marcel Schäfer said he is very sure neither Xaver Schlager nor Peter Gulacsi will move in the winter window during the club’s training camp in Portugal.
- Both players’ contracts expire in the summer, and Leipzig wants clarity on Schlager’s future in January with only a brief slip into early February possible.
- Schäfer characterized the talks as multi‑round negotiations involving agents rather than a single meeting.
- Media have linked Juventus to Schlager, but the club does not expect a January transfer.
- For Gulacsi, Leipzig will focus on the role he envisions, with age not decisive even as the club acknowledges an eventual goalkeeping transition.
