Angelino teases his former employer RB Leipzig and David Raum. In the eyes of the Hoffenheim left-back, TSG “made the better deal”.
Angelino is having a strong season with TSG Hoffenheim. Before the duel against ex-club RB Leipzig, the Spaniard spoke about his decision in favor of Hoffenheim and about RBL’s stumble start and especially David Raum.
It was one of the blockbuster deals of the transfer summer in the Bundesliga: RB Leipzig signed David Raum for 25 million euros and in return sent Angelino on loan to TSG Hoffenheim. So far the clear winner: Hoffenheim and the in-form Angelino.
In return, things have been modest for Leipzig and David Raum so far. The Red Bulls had a poor start to the season, which cost Domenico Tedesco the job (Marco Rose took over). Newcomer Raum is set for the Saxons, but far from his best form. The German international has enormous teething troubles and was only able to contribute one assist.
Angelino, who wasn’t particularly happy with the way Leipzig treated him, now teased his former employer: “TSG made the better deal. Very simple,” explained the Spaniard in the club’s TSG magazine. In a week, Leipzig and Hoffenheim will face each other for the first time this season – Angelino should be particularly keen on this duel.

The 25-year-old also spoke about his decision to go to Hoffenheim. “TSG tried to sign me two and a half years ago. That was a big factor. Alexander Rosen made an enormous effort to get me again. That’s why I made the decision to go with TSG pretty quickly.”
Angelino can well imagine staying beyond 2023. “Football is a business. At the end of the day, I can’t always choose, but of course I’d like to find a home in the long term,” said the left-back, emphasizing: “I’d like to play in the TSG shirt for a long time to come.”
