The tale of RB Leipzig, of Deutschland, is one relatively fresh in the annals of football. Not having had the privilege of decades of foundation as other monolith clubs often boast, this side came into existence merely a decade ago, in 2009, to be precise. Their home, The Red Bull Arena, has come to be a venue of note in a country that breathes football.
The total market value of the RB Leipzig playing troops stands at a significant £391m, a sum that speaks volumes about their monetary muscle power and the quality they've managed to rope in. This figure, it must be noted, isn't one plucked out of thin air. It is, in fact, according to Transfermarkt.
The playing force can be broken down into 18 players, each with an average age figure that resides on the 26 mark. It's a clear indication of their approach, a balanced blend of raw energy and seasoned expertise.
Stepping into the current season, RB Leipzig have donned their battle gear for two competitions so far. They've managed to carve out a space for themselves in the 4th place in the Bundesliga, whilst also blazing their trail into the Quarter-Finals of the DFB-Pokal. It's a journey we're keenly observing, rest assured.
