Many new players choose Leipzig because Klopp; Chelsea exchanged players + money for Simmons

Klopp's charm naturally prompted some surprising potential new stars to accept RB Leipzig's offer. Therefore, it is not impossible for a superstar like Liverpool's Xavi Elliot to say "yes" to him, the world-renowned former coach.

In Ole Werner and Benjamin Sheshko's deal, perseverance, courage, experience, connections and level are all crucial. RB Leipzig sports director Marcel Schefel adheres to the philosophy that precision and goal orientation take precedence over speed.

This nervous strategy has saved Leipzig nearly 4 million euros in Ole Werner's deal with Werder Bremen and will receive a transfer fee of more than 10 million euros higher than the 75 million euros expected by Shessko's transfer.

Schaefer had several days of hard negotiations with senior executives from Manchester United and Newcastle, and they communicated continuously through email, video conferences, and later face-to-face talks.

Several big names in Manchester and Newcastle booked a room for several days at the Steigenbogg Hotel in Leipzig, trying to convince Leipzig and Shezko in person, which fully demonstrates the importance the two clubs attach to the transfer.

Manchester United's delegation includes club CEO Omar Berrada, and equally important sporting director and former Adidas boss Matt Hargreaves.

Sheshko finally agreed to join Manchester United, although Newcastle offered a better offer. From Leipzig's perspective, if the transfer fee can be more million euros, transfer to Newcastle would be more attractive, but Sheshko chose Manchester United.

The relationship between Chelsea and Xavi Simmons is still calm. Chelsea has always insisted on joining the players to offset the transfer fee, and Leipzig insists on refusing.
