Resting comfortably within the boundaries of Saxon Germany, there dwells a football collective by the name of RB Leipzig. A sprightly entity, the team emerged onto the football scene only in 2009, a mere wee bairn compared to some. Their territory of choice for home games is the conspicuous Red Bull Arena, a modern bastion of the beautiful game.
Glancing at the monetary worth of the team, the RB Leipzig playing squad boasts a rather respectable market value. Galloping past the £300m range, it finds firm footing around the £361m mark, or so one would glean from the data shared on Transfermarkt.
Looking at the lads themselves, RB Leipzig parades a platoon of 19 players, each bringing something unique to the table, each a colour in the team's vibrant palette. And they're a fairly youthful lot too, with the average age of the squad being a spry 25 years.
Turning to their track record this season, Leipzig have been busy giving it all, putting their mettle to the test in two competitions. Their exertions place them 6th in the Bundesliga convoy, a fairly decent perch. Then there's the matter of their DFB-Pokal journey, which so far has seen them advance to the Quarter-Finals. All said, Leipzig's season has shaped up to be quite a captivating spectacle.
