FC Porto v RB Leipzig - UEFA Champions League
Ralph Hasenhuttl has impressed with RB Leipzig

RB Leipzig have been a curious phenomenon of sorts in Germany's Bundesliga since it has been propped up by a corporation and that is completely different to the structure at most of the other clubs. In addition to that, the club which gained promotion to the Bundesliga last season, have given Germany's elite clubs a bloody nose and finished 2nd in the league last season.

All of this now brings our attention to their Austrian manager Ralph Hasenhuttl, who was appointed only last year and immediately made the team play a style of football that has seen him being regarded as the next big thing among the next generation of European managers.

Hasenhuttl has devised a pressing game at Leipzig that took the league by storm and the whole thing is focused on controlled pressing of the opposition when they are building up their attack. The Austrian is still only 50 years old and his name was linked to the Arsenal job previoisly.

However, it is believed that German giants Bayern Munich have also identified him as a potential target. He could be an excellent appointment for Chelsea if the club decide to part ways with Conte.
