RB Leipzig (RasenBallsport Leipzig e.V.)

Since being founded in 2009, RB Leipzig has been on a remarkable journey from the fifth tier of German football to their current status as one of the best teams in the Bundesliga. Twice runners-up for the title and Champions League semi-finalists in 2020, the club's meteoric rise is one of the greatest achievements in world football – and they aren't finished yet.

Boasting an enviable, highly respected and now highly copied performance centre and development program, the Red Bull Academy has pumped out a steady stream of top-quality players ready for first-team action. RB Leipzig is a model of how to build a world-class football organisation to compete with the best – both on and off the pitch.
