Marked for Jonas Schmitt

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad4 Jan 2027

Jonas Schmitt breaks a bone — 19 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 19 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match4 Jan 2027

RB Leipzig refuse to drop out of the race

Position 3, 35 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Market4 Jan 2027

RB Leipzig turn down Borussia Dortmund for Assan Ouédraogo

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Castello Lukeba in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at RB Leipzig this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market4 Jan 2027

Borussia Mönchengladbach join the queue for Maxime Estève

Add another name to the list: Borussia Mönchengladbach have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Maxime Estève. The answer from RB Leipzig has not changed — yet.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Words at RB Leipzig training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Christopher Nkunku is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match2 Jan 2027

RB Leipzig get the job done against TSG Hoffenheim

A 1‑0 win over TSG Hoffenheim, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad4 Jan 2027

A late step up for Maarten Vandevoordt

At 24 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Player ratings4 Jan 2027

Rômulo takes the honours

Marked 7.97 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, RB Leipzig had the best player on the pitch.

Player ratings28 Dec 2026

Nobody could get near Johan Bakayoko

Successful dribbles: 39. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Jonas Schmitt breaks a bone — 26 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 26 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Christopher Nkunku in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at RB Leipzig this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Words at RB Leipzig training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. David Raum is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad28 Dec 2026

The manager makes an example of Rocco Reitz

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings28 Dec 2026

The afternoon belonged to Castello Lukeba

A mark of 7.46, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Market21 Dec 2026

Rômulo hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what RB Leipzig can pretend not to have heard.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Jonas Schmitt breaks a bone — 35 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 35 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings21 Dec 2026

Christopher Nkunku runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 31. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad21 Dec 2026

David Raum falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The terraces21 Dec 2026

The crowd has taken to Johan Bakayoko

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match19 Dec 2026

RB Leipzig find a way past Borussia Mönchengladbach

Borussia Mönchengladbach made RB Leipzig work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Neil El Aynaoui in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at RB Leipzig this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Johan Bakayoko gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings21 Dec 2026

The afternoon belonged to Rômulo

A mark of 7.97, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Jonas Schmitt breaks a bone — 44 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 44 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Maarten Vandevoordt says RB Leipzig went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Castello Lukeba signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Castello Lukeba and RB Leipzig agree another 5 years.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Tempers go at RB Leipzig

Castello Lukeba was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match12 Dec 2026

Bayern Munich take the points off RB Leipzig

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Player ratings14 Dec 2026

Nobody could get near Johan Bakayoko

Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
