Forsberg praises Rangnick: 'I can't imagine a better coach'

Emil Forsberg says he can hardly imagine a better coach than Ralf Rangnick.
RB Leipzig star Emil Forsberg says he is very impressed with Ralf Rangnick's qualities as a coach.

Rangnick, who is also RB Leipzig's sporting director, serves in the role as head coach until Julian Nagelsmann arrives from Hoffenheim in the summer of 2019 - and according to Forsberg, he's doing a great job.

"He's always there for us and helps when he can. He also gets loud when we need it. The coach has everything under control - the results and the way we play say it all," Forsberg told Sportbuzzer and continued:

"The overall package that comes with Ralf Rangnick is great. I can't imagine a better coach. It may even be hard for him to not coach us anymore next year."

Forsberg also underlines that he is excited about Julian Nagelsmann's future arrival.

"He kept Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga and then led them into the Champions League. That convinces me he must be a great coach," Forsberg said.

The Swedish international is currently sidelined with an injury, and Rangnick has said he expects to have him back for the game against Wolfsburg on November 24.
