One of the biggest managerial link ups

RB Leipzig is currently taking Bundesliga by storm. Standing top of the pile, 3 points clear of defending champions Bayern Munich, this team has written quiet a script this season.

Their manager, Ralph Hussenhütl, has grabbed a lot of eyeballs in Europe this season. According to Metro, he is the latest addition in the potential growing list of Arsene Wenger's successor at Arsenal.

RB Leipzig has produced remarkable performances in Bundesliga this season, and their manager, proudly takes credit for it.

Leipzig are yet to lose a game this season, while Arsenal have lost 1 game(opening day defeat to Liverpool).

Arsenal's chief executive Ivan Gazidis is clearly trying to plan ahead and by building up a dossier of candidates; whoever ends up being given the nod will have one of the most daunting tasks in football. If Feguson's retirement from football has taught us anything, 'replacing a legend' is as tough as it gets.

According to The Sun, Hussenhütl is now one of the main contenders for the job.

Hussenhütl's team has scored 27 goals in 12 games this season winning 9 of them. Their performance is better than the Bavarian giants.

So looking at the stats one must agree that he can succeed Arsene Wenger at Arsenal.
