Leipzig (AP) - Football coach Julian Nagelsmann does not see himself under any particular pressure despite the high payment from FC Bayern Munich to RB Leipzig.

"Basically, I am not afraid of a transfer fee," said the 33-year-old on Tuesday.

“There are many players who cost significantly more, and they also have to deal with the pressure and perform.

Same with me."

The Munich had previously announced the commitment of Nagelsmann as the successor to Hansi Flick for the new season.

The two clubs did not provide any information about the transfer fee Bayern would have to pay to Leipzig.

However, this sum is likely to have an unprecedented dimension in the Bundesliga.

Like Nagelsmann, RB CEO Oliver Mintzlaff did not name a specific number.

«We don't comment on that.

In that case it is of course important to me that the transfer fee was extremely high.

And what I heard there and what is being rumored - at least that's not something that we deny, »said Mintzlaff.

As a transfer, there was speculation about a sum of 20 to 30 million euros.

This sum "I didn't write it down either and said:" I'm worth exactly that and if you want me, you have to pay exactly that. "

These are club topics, ”said Nagelsmann.

"I am highly motivated to still perform well here and from the summer also for the new club."
