RB Leipzig boss Domenico Tedesco has revealed he’s decided to relocate his digs for a few days after Rangers fans get set to take over the hotel where he’s currently based.
The Italian has been staying in a city centre hotel since arriving at the club earlier in the season following the sacking of American Jessie Marsch.
But joked he’s moving out for a couple of days to the club’s state of the art training centre after he found out hundreds of Rangers fans will be checking in for the game.
And Tedesco welcomed the impact on the city’s economy as 8000 thirsty fans descend on the city for the Europa League semi-final.

“I’m still staying in a hotel in Leipzig where 200 Rangers fans will stay, so I’m moving to the academy for two days!
“Playing at home with a good atmosphere is the best.”
