The German Football Weekly - RB Leipzig: The Preview
The Bundesliga season is just a matter of days away, so it’s time to preview every side ahead of another exciting campaign. Today… RB Leipzig The Story of Last Season:After 13 years and 6 seasons in the Bundesliga, RB Leipzig have finally ended their wait for a first major title.

It wasn’t like Nkunku was profiting off an otherworldly attack though. RB Leipzig only scored the 4th most goals in last season’s Bundesliga, but Nkunku had a direct hand in 48.6% of these. Not only was this the best value in the Bundesliga, but in all of Europe’s major leagues, only Karim Benzema had a slightly larger hand to play in his side’s success (48.75%) The U23 One to Watch:...Keep reading with a 7-day free trialSubscribe to The German Football Weekly to keep reading this post and get 7 days of free access to the full post archives.
