Antonio Nusa reveals stance on Arsenal and Tottenham interest

RB Leipzig forward Antonio Nusa has addressed speculation linking him with Premier League moves to Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, insisting he is deliberately shutting out the transfer noise to concentrate on his football.

The 21-year-old has emerged as one of Europe’s most exciting young talents, attracting attention from several top clubs following an impressive start to the season in Germany.

Nusa has registered six goals and eight assists in 15 appearances for Leipzig, performances that have reportedly placed Arsenal and Tottenham on alert ahead of the next transfer window.

The two North London rivals are understood to be among the clubs monitoring his progress as they assess potential attacking reinforcements.

However, despite the growing interest in his services, the Norwegian international says he is refusing to allow speculation about his future to become a distraction.

Speaking to TV 2, Nusa revealed that he has reduced the time he spends on his phone to avoid being overwhelmed by the constant transfer reports surrounding him.

“I try to take a step back from it. There is a lot going on at the same time now. I try not to open my mobile phone too often, because there is always some stuff there,” he said.

The youngster acknowledged that avoiding the speculation entirely is difficult but believes distancing himself from the constant discussions is important for maintaining his focus.

“I see everything, then! Whatever comes. I’m not blind, after all, so I get it. That’s why I try to take a step back. I have good people around me. It’s not a stress,” he added.

Nusa happy at Leipzig despite Premier League interest

While Arsenal and Tottenham continue to be linked with the winger, Nusa has made it clear that he is comfortable with his current situation at RB Leipzig.

The former Club Brugge attacker praised the German side and head coach, highlighting the positive environment that has helped him develop into one of the team’s standout performers.

Rather than becoming distracted by speculation about a possible departure, he wants to make the most of his daily experiences in Leipzig and continue improving his game.

“I just try to enjoy the everyday life I have in Leipzig. It’s a fantastic team with a fantastic coach,” he said.

Nusa also credited his representatives for handling matters away from the pitch, allowing him to concentrate on his responsibilities as a footballer.

“Next to it, I have an agent who works with all other parts, and just lets me focus on the football. That’s the most important thing for me,” he added.

His comments suggest that a potential Premier League switch is not currently dominating his thinking, despite the reported interest from Arsenal and Tottenham.

With six goals and eight assists already this season, Nusa’s performances are likely to keep attracting attention as the campaign progresses.
