Synergy heading our way?
Back in 2010, Tim Sebastian was a sign of Papa Red Bull's ambition for his newly-minted German soccer team. RB Leipzig was in its second season under its new ownership and new name, and Sebastian was both a local lad - born in Leipzig - and a better class of player than fourth-tier clubs might usually expect to attract. Prior to joining RB Leipzig, Sebastian had spent most of his career with FC Hansa Rostock, yo-yoing between Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga. And he had one relegation-bound season in Bundesliga with Kalrsruher SC in 2008-09.
