Asked about the rumors that he could take over from Julian Nagelsmann, who is being touted as a possible replacement for Bayern München coach Hansi Flick, Marsch told Sky (via Goal.com):
"Of course I understand the club very well. If you ask me what would fit best, RB Leipzig is of course a top idea.
"Julian Nagelsmann is doing a great job and there is currently no reason for Leipzig to look for a new coach.
"But if I can have the opportunity as a coach in Leipzig, then that's a great idea for me."
Marsch spent a season working as an assistant for Ralf Rangnick at RB Leipzig before taking charge of RB Salzburg in 2019. His contract with the Austrian champions expires in 2022.
