RB Leipzig will listen to offers for Antonio Nusa in 2027 amid growing speculation over a possible move to Arsenal.

The Norway international has been on the radar of the reigning Premier League champions for years. Over the past few transfer windows, Nusa has invariably been linked with a possible move to Arsenal.

Thus far, nothing has materialised on that front, and FootballTransfers was told last month that the 21-year-old was not yet considered a key target for 2027 by the Gunners. However, the youngster is making an increasingly strong argument for himself.

Nusa has bagged six goals and provided eight assists in 15 appearances this season, which includes 11 goal contributions in just nine Bundesliga outings. Last week, he scored against Man City in a narrow Champions League loss to the Premier League powerhouse.

Heading into the new year, there is a growing feeling that Nusa will take the next step in his career in 2027. And with Leipzig being very much a selling club - despite their best efforts to change that - they will not stand in his way.

Nusa transfer: The state of play

In light of the recent speculation over the winger, Sky Germany has provided a major update on his future. According to Leipzig reporter Philipp Hinze, the Red Bulls do not wish to sell in January, but an extraordinary offer could change that stance.

"At RB Leipzig, no player is untouchable, as we recently saw with Yan Diomande, and the same holds true for Antonio Nusa," Hinze explained. "However, this only applies to the summer of 2027.

"In the winter, a transfer is theoretically off the table, but only theoretically because you never know if a team will come forward with an indecent offer that can't be refused. The clear objective, however, is that Nusa stays beyond the winter.

"In the summer, things will become interesting. He does not have a release clause. As things stand, a realistic price tag is €70 million to €90m, but it is difficult to name an exact figure because the rest of the season will be decisive.

"If he keeps performing - by the way, he already has 11 goal contributions in nine Bundesliga games; seven assists, four goals - Leipzig will start dreaming of a nine-figure fee in the summer."

Regarding possible links with Bayern Munich, Florian Plettenberg added that a transfer is "highly, highly unlikely." The perennial Bundesliga champions are long-standing admirers of the Norwegian, but a deal is off the table for reasons he was not authorised to disclose.

This is good news for Arsenal as it means that one possible competitor for Nusa's signature is already out of the race. If they were to get serious about the 21-year-old, they would have a good chance of securing his services.
