RB Leipzig coach Julian Nagelsmann has admitted interest in Crystal Palace striker Alexander Sorloth.

Sorloth has come off the back of an outstanding season on-loan with Trabzonspor and is available from Palace.

Nagelsmann admist they're keen, confirming: "Sorloth is definitely a player who would help us. He scored a lot of goals last season. If he manages to copy the number in the Bundesliga, it would be great.

"We are of course looking at other candidates. But there is not a flurry of them. Therefore, we must expect that such a transfer will be one to two euros more expensive under the prevailing circumstances."
