Kicker and Sport Bild reported on Tuesday that Leipzig sporting director Marcel Schäfer had reached out to the 37-year-old.
Leipzig, who missed out on Europe for the first time as a Bundesliga team, are searching for a successor to interim coach Zsolt Löw.
The 46-year-old took over from the sacked Marco Rose in March but returned to Jürgen Klopp's global football strategy team at Red Bull after the season ended.
Spaniard Cesc Fàbregas from Italian Serie A club Como and Crystal Palace's Austrian boss Oliver Glasner were viewed as top candidates for the Leipzig job, but both appear set to stay put.

Ex Real Madrid Star The 'Dream Signing' For Inter Milan If Cesc Fabregas Becomes Coach Nico Paz would become the 'dream signing' for Inter Milan in the event that Cesc Fabregas becomes the new coach. This according to today's print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews. Advertisement Inter Milan are currently working to try and make Cesc Fabregas their new coach to replace Simone Inzaghi. And should the Spaniard indeed arrive, it would certainly change their plans on the pitch a lot. Nico Paz The 'Dream Signing' For Inter If Fabregas Becomes Coach COMO, ITALY – JANUARY 20: Nico Paz of Como 1907 celebrates after scoring their team's fourth goal during the Serie A match between Como 1907 and Udinese Calcio at Stadio G. Sinigaglia on January 20, 2025 in Como, Italy. (Photo by) Inter Milan had already been eyeing up a move for Nico Paz. The former Real Madrid midfielder was a player the Nerazzurri as having the right profile to thrive under Simone Inzaghi. However, the arrival of Fabregas on the bench would add a different dimension to Inter's interest in Paz. With Fabregas at the helm, Inter wouldn't just be speculating that their coach can get the best out of Paz. Advertisement On the contrary, the former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder has already unlocked Paz's best form in a season at Como. Therefore, the Corriere report, if Fabregas does become Inter coach, the Nerazzurri would consider it their biggest 'dream' of the summer to bring in the Argentine. One way or another, the newspaper anticipate, attacking midfield will be a priority area to reinforce at if Fabregas does come in. Davide Frattesi could be on his way out no matter what. And then, players like Nicola Zalewski and Luis Henrique should suit Fabregas's football well. But having Paz continue his remarkable growth from last season would be the ultimate dream.
