Burk joined the newly promoted Bundesliga club RB Leipzig on a five-year contract for an undisclosed fee. This move happened on August 28, 2016, and it caused outrage among Nottingham Forest supporters who heavily criticized the club’s owner, Fawaz Al-Hasawi.

He went back to the English Premier League on August 25, 2017, when he joined West Bromwich Albion for a reported fee of 15 million GBP, breaking his own record as the most expensive Scottish footballer.
