      Julian Nagelsmann has committed himself to RB Leipzig amid speculation that he could take the step to a bigger club.

      "I have three years left on my contract, and it doesn't include an exit clause," said Nagelsmann, who joined RB Leipzig from Hoffenheim last summer, in an interview with Sport1.

      "I came here to follow a path of personal growth and development. I deliberately didn't reach for the highest shelf when I moved on.

      "We want to take the club to the next level and achieve our goals. Whether we can do enough to win titles will be up to me, the club and the team.

      "No club have called me. They don't even have my number," the 32-year-old said.

      Timo Werner is understood to be on the verge of a move to Chelsea, and Nagelsmann is aware that he will probably have to manage without the German international for next season.

      "The deal hasn't been completed yet, I have to emphasize that. I'm a coach, who has a realistic view and sometimes dreams. I'm aware that one or two highly talented players will be leaving us. It's then up to us to find new players, who can follow in their footsteps," he said when asked about Werner.
