But I still have a little time and I still want to stand on the field every day and enjoy club football.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He later said, \u201cIf I had a top offer, I would also switch to the Premier League.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nagelsmann\u2019s contract doesn\u2019t run out until 2023, but his comments will have alerted the boards of many Premier League clubs.<\/p>\n<h2>Nagelsmann\u2019s Options<\/h2>\n<p>Predicting what the Premier League will look like in three years is nearly impossible. But, several top clubs may be courting Nagelsmann around that time.<\/p>\n<h4>Tottenham Hotspur<\/h4>\n<p>One club could be <a href=\"http:\/\/tottenhamfootball.co\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Spurs<\/a>, where Jose Mourinho could be completing his third full season with the club. If Mourinho\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/2020\/01\/23\/tottenham-hotspurs-long-road-to-glory-jose-mourinhos-greatest-challenge\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">managerial record<\/a> is anything to go by, Spurs will likely be looking to replace him.<\/p>\n<p>Nagelsmann would be an ideal fit there. His ability to meet ambitious objectives on a relatively low budget, as exhibited by his work at Hoffenheim, would have Daniel Levy licking his lips. His record of developing strikers, especially <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/49fe9070\/Timo-Werner?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Timo Werner<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/603cb947\/Andrej-Kramaric?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Andrej Kramaric<\/a>, would bode well for both <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/21a66f6a\/Harry-Kane?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Harry Kane<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/4357f557\/Troy-Parrott?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Troy Parrott<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Manchester City<\/h4>\n<p>Another option may be <a href=\"http:\/\/manchestercityfootball.co\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manchester City<\/a>. With a European ban looming, and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/b21fe2db\/Pep-Guardiola?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pep Guardiola<\/a>&#8216;s contract expiring in 2021, City may be looking for someone to lead a rebuild job. Nagelsmann\u2019s management of projects at both Hoffenheim and Leipzig speaks for itself. Even though he\u2019s stated his intention to see out his Leipzig contract, the prospect of working with a nearly unlimited budget could tempt him to backtrack.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, Nagelsmann would be the perfect acquisition for most Premier League clubs.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"NKHzZWflQvx97qHL5WKtaA\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1252976982\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'NKHzZWflQvx97qHL5WKtaA',sig:'aIG8tF__FlJCq46sp6_MQ9iOCm5PasSFq5ZIkxHbow0=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1252976982',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RB Leipzig manager Julian Nagelsmann has admitted his desire to move to the Premier League upon the expiry of his contract in 2023.
