RB Leipzig, sprouted from the fertile soil of 2009, have chosen to stake their claim on the wide, lush greens of The Red Bull Arena tucked away in none other than the robust footballing nation of Germany. Their period of existence might appear brief when pitted against the time-honoured clubs of murky terraces, but the lads have in no time wriggled their way up the ranks of football nobility.
Akin to a well-endowed war chest, the RB Leipzig playing squad boasts a head-turning total market value sitting comfortably around the satisfactory tune of £437m. This lucrative valuation, we find from couch-surfing, is cordially lent to them by Transfermarkt.
Home to a diverse collection of 26 lads who've decided to put on the honourable jersey and take to the pitch for them, RB Leipzig sit rather comfortably in their team assembly line. But youth is the order of the day at RB Leipzig, with the median age of its warriors touching a sprightly 24, a rather promising proposition for the future indeed, wouldn't you say?
As for the current season under examination, it appears RB Leipzig have decided to have their fingers in three pies. They've stuck their foot in the door of the Bundesliga, where they seem to be playing fifth fiddle. Additionally, they've managed to dance their way toward the Semi-Finals of the DFB-Pokal. Lastly, they're giving their all in the League Phase of that grandest stage of them all, the Champions League.
