History of RB Leipzig
Founding and Early Years
RB Leipzig was founded in 2009 when the Red Bull group bought the playing rights of SSV Markranstädt, a fifth-division club, with the stated goal of reaching the Bundesliga within eight years, a target met in just seven seasons. The name "RasenBallsport" (literally "lawn ball sport") was chosen to work around German rules forbidding a club being named directly after a sponsor, while preserving the "RB" abbreviation.
Club Evolution
The club play at the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig, wearing red and white with a stylised bull motif echoing the Red Bull brand identity. Its founding method remains a subject of controversy in German football, with some rival fans labelling it an "artificial" club over its workaround of the "50+1" rule.
The Project's Key Architects
Ralf Rangnick is the strategic architect of the club's rapid rise through the German divisions. Ralph Hasenhüttl (2016-2018) delivered a historic Bundesliga debut with a 2nd-place finish in his first season. Julian Nagelsmann (2019-2021), the youngest-ever Bundesliga coach at his appointment, led the club to its best-ever European run, a Champions League semi-final in 2019-20.
Iconic Players
Timo Werner (2016-2020) was the prolific striker of the club's rise. Naby Keïta established himself as one of the Bundesliga's best midfielders before his move to Liverpool. Dayot Upamecano and Christopher Nkunku also embody the generation that carried the club onto the European stage.
Major Achievements
RB Leipzig have never won the Bundesliga (runners-up twice, in 2016-17 and 2020-21), but have lifted two consecutive DFB-Pokal titles (2021-22, 2022-23) and a DFL-Supercup (2022), while reaching a Champions League semi-final in 2019-20.
The Club Today
Led by Martín Demichelis since 2026 and chaired by Johann Plenge at the head of the club's members' association, RB Leipzig qualified for the 2026-27 Champions League, continuing their ambition to reach the summit of German football despite still lacking a league title.
