Red Bull Leipzig, formally known as RasenBallsport Leipzig e.V., is a German football club founded on 19 May 2009 by the Austrian energy drink company Red Bull GmbH. The club is based in Leipzig, Saxony and plays its home games at the Red Bull Arena.
RB Leipzig was founded with the goal of making it to the Bundesliga, Germany's highest football division, within a short time frame. The club began its journey in the fifth division, the NOFV-Oberliga Süd, and quickly advanced through the league system. Already in 2016, after only seven years, RB Leipzig reached the Bundesliga.
The rapid success has been controversial and has drawn criticism from traditional football fans who believe the club represents a commercialization of the sport. Despite this, the team has established itself as a strong force in German football, known for its modern style of play and youth investment.
RB Leipzig have enjoyed several impressive seasons in the Bundesliga, qualifying for European competitions such as the UEFA Champions League, where they reached the semi-finals in 2019-2020. The club is also known for signing young talent and developing them into star players, which has contributed to its success.
The Red Bull Arena, located in Leipzig, is home to RB Leipzig. Inaugurated in 2004 and originally called the Zentralstadion, the arena holds around 42,000 spectators. After Red Bull GmbH's acquisition in 2010, the arena underwent an extensive renovation and name change. The arena is known for its modern design and fantastic atmosphere, making it one of Germany's premier football stadiums.
