The defensive player has been at Leipzig for four years. And will be playing for RB for at least one more season.

The captain is staying on board. Victoria Krug has extended her contract with women's Bundesliga club RB Leipzig by one year and will now play for the Saxons until at least 2026. The 27-year-old joined RB in 2021, was promoted to the Bundesliga with the team and has been a permanent fixture in defense ever since. This season, she played 16 out of 17 games for Leipzig and was always in the starting line-up.

"With her speed and robustness, she has already prevented many goals against and repeatedly proves her tireless commitment and great passion," said Viola Odebrecht, Head of Women's and Girls' Football at RB, about the Lusatian-born player. Krug has also played for 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam and SV Meppen, among others.
