RB Leipzig: Orban and Gulacsi before a change - what now?

In the current situation at RB Leipzig, it rumbles tremendously. Even if it has been decided internally that the two top performers Willi Orban (32) and Péter Gulácsi (35) are allowed to go, the wind in the club is different. New coach Ole Werner (37) wants to rely on these two old stars when it comes to the future of the team. "In our conversations we found that a compelling change is not necessary," said Werner at his idea.

The first getting to know the first between Werner and Orban on Saturday. The trainer has already planned a meeting with Gulácsi for Friday. "We do not want to compulsively send players," emphasizes Sportboss Marcel Schäfer (37) and thus underlines the respectful attitude towards the contracts of the players. Orban could continue to remain captain, which would have a stabilizing effect for the team.

The squad of the upheaval

To bring the team on a fresh course, Leipzig plans to rejuvenate the squad from the current 35 to around 25 to 26 players. There are not only economic reasons, but also strategic. RB Leipzig was once known as the second best team in the Bundesliga behind Bavaria Munich, but has recently lost the ground. The success of Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen show that it is time for Leipzig to take a fresh start.

• Bayern Munich: -450
• leverkusen: +225
• Leipzig: +1100

Despite the setback, the philosophy of the association remains clear, and talented players such as Orban and Gulácsi are still the heart of the team. Gulácsi in particular celebrates his tenth anniversary near Leipzig this season and was able to shine with a clean game in the first games.

A look at the return

The question remains how the absence of Orban, who received a red card in the first game of the season against Bochum and will expose the next two Bundesliga matches, will affect the team. Despite this challenge, Leipzig won the game 1-0. However, Orban has set signs through his commitment and leadership strength and showed that he is worth putting on him.

The coming weeks will be crucial to see whether Ole Werner and his team can make the leap back to the top of the league. The competition is not easier by Dortmund, which recently reached the Champions League final, and Leverkusen, the reigning master. But with a clear strategy and the right players, the traditional club Leipzig could open a new chapter.

How the future will develop remains to be seen. However, it is clear that RB Leipzig has a lot in transition and that every step must be careful to get back to the top of the Bundesliga. Said developments and the importance of Orban and Gulácsi will therefore continue to shape the headlines.
