Assan Ouedraogo

Assan Ouedraogo of RB Leipzig was born in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany on 9 May 2006 (age 18)

Assan Ouedraogo, born on 9 May 2006 in Germany, is a central midfielder for the nation's premier football team, RB Leipzig. Standing 6ft 3in (1.92m) tall and weighing 12st 8lb (80kg), Ouedraogo is an imposing presence on the pitch. Known for his athletic prowess, he proudly sports the number 20 jersey for his club.

According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is a staggering £9m. His contract with RB Leipzig is an equally impressive commitment, set to conclude on 30 June 2029—a substantial run of 4 years and 8 months from the present date.

Ouedraogo's football journey began earnestly in July 2020, joining Schalke 04 as a trainee. It was here in the 2. Bundesliga of Germany that he started to build his reputation. Notably, his debut season (2023-2024) with Schalke 04 catapulted the young midfielder into the spotlight. Ouedraogo made 17 first-team appearances and netted three goals in league matches alone—a commendable feat for any player, let alone a newcomer.

Following his successful stint at Schalke 04, Ouedraogo was snapped up by RB Leipzig in July 2024. His transfer, which cost Leipzig roughly £8.5m, necessitated a move from the 2. Bundesliga to its superior counterpart, the Bundesliga.

The current season (2024-2025) has seen Ouedraogo maintain his performance levels at RB Leipzig, having already made his first appearance in league matches. Although early into the season, his single game involvement in the Champions League 2024-2025 for RB Leipzig underscores his growing importance to the team. While currently a substitute, Ouedraogo's proven abilities suggest a promising future ahead of him in the heart of Leipzig's midfield.
