Contract extension: Peter Gulacsi

Goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi (34) will remain at Leipzig beyond the summer of 2025. Both sides agreed on an early contract extension for another year until 2026. This means that the 34-year-old will be in the RBL goal for the next two seasons. 

The Hungary international, who will be taking part in the European Championship in Germany in a few weeks, moved from Red Bull Salzburg to the trade fair city in the summer of 2015. Since then, our No.1 has played 302 competitive games for the Red Bulls. He won the DFB Cup with RBL in 2022 and 2023.

This week, the Germany international (14 caps) was also called up for Germany’s Euro 2024 squad.
 

Departure: Tim Schreiber

Tim Schreiber is moving to SG Dynamo after 10 years with the Red Bulls. 

The 22-year-old came to Cottaweg from SC Borea Dresden in the summer of 2014 and progressed through Leipzig’s youth department. The 6’3″ goalkeeper then gained match practice at Halleschen FC (25 games) and Holstein Kiel (11 games). 

During his last loan spell in Saarbrücken, Schreiber played a strong season (24 games) and stood out with great saves, especially in the DFB Cup. The Freital native reached the semi-finals of the cup competition with the third division team this year.
 

Contract extension: Amadou Haidara

Leipzig and Amadou Haidara extend their contract, which currently runs until summer 2025, by a further year until 2026. 

This means that the Red Bulls can sign another idenkeytification figure – the 26-year-old has been playing for RBL for five years and has already played 175 competitive matches, the 12th most in the club’s history.
