With just over six months left on his contract at RB Leipzig, Xaver Schlager could potentially leave the club on a free transfer next summer.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Juventus are interested in picking up the Austrian international as a free agent once his contract expires.

Die Roten Bullen, however, would likely prefer to avoid losing Schlager on a free transfer and may look to negotiate a contract extension.

In what has generally been an injury-plagued spell at Red Bull Arena, the 28-year-old central midfielder has made 91 appearances since joining from Wolfsburg in 2022.

He is an Austrian international and has represented his country 49 times at senior level.
