Winners Osawe (17) will join the Bundesliga 2 side 1. FC Nürnberg and leaves the Red Bulls after five years. RB Leipzig now has a buyback clause for the midfielder.
Winners Osawe came to Leipzig in the summer of 2019 from Berliner AK and was part of the RBL football academy throughout the Under 15 and Under 19 youth teams.
Las season was Winner’s most successful, managing to become World and European Champion with Germany’s Under 17 national team. Additionally, he reached the knockout stage of the UEFA Youth League with RBL’s Under 19 team, a feat never achieved before by a RB Leipzig team in that category.
Rouven Schröder, Sporting Director
- “Winners approached us with his wish to follow this path. Even with the possibility to play for another year with our Under 19 team, we didn’t want to get in the way of taking the step into professional football.
He crowned five years of great development in Leipzig by winning the Under 17 European Championship and the Under 17 World Cup. We hope Winners keeps developing has he has and that he accumulates plenty of game time and experience… that is the most important thing!”
