RB Leipzig needs to build a new team next season.
Several major profiles have already left the German powerhouse club.
Red Bull gives wings" is the slogan of the German club's major sponsor, and they will need those wings in Leipzig as they will have a lot of work to do in rebuilding the team for the next season.
Christopher Nkunku, Konrad Laimer, and Dominik Szoboszlai have all been sold, while Gvardiol is reported to be close to a move to Manchester City. It brings in a significant amount of money, but it means that the club will have to do without four key players. So far, RB Leipzig has acquired Benjamin Sesko and Nicolas Seiwald from their partner club Red Bull Salzburg. They have also bought Baumgartner from Hoffenheim, and they have secured a loan deal for Fabio Carvalho from Liverpool.
Nkunku for Leipzig:
Games: 172
Goals: 70
Assists: 56
Laimer for Leipzig:
Games: 190
Goals: 15
Assists: 19
Szoboszlai for Leipzig:
Games: 91
Goals: 20
Assists: 22
Indeed, RB Leipzig is bidding farewell to a significant number of goals and assists with the departures of players like Nkunku and Szoboszlai. The club will have high expectations for Benjamin Sesko to step up and provide the necessary goal-scoring contributions. Alexander Sörloth has returned from his loan spell at Real Sociedad, but his future at Leipzig remains uncertain, so it is expected that the club will engage in significant transfer activity during the summer to bolster their squad.
Leipzig's reputation as a development club that sells its players is well-known, so it's not the first time they find themselves in this situation. However, they always manage to assemble a strong team that competes for Champions League spots. The club has a remarkable ability to nurture talent, and it likely helps that they have a clear and distinct playing style, making it easier for new players to adapt. They aspire to play offensive football, emphasizing precise passing and effective counterattacks.
