RB Leipzig have established themselves in Germany's top flight since winning promotion to the Bundesliga in 2016.

Speaking in an interview with Sport Bild, the club's sporting director, Markus Krösche, has opened up on the club's next big targets.

"I want to win titles, and so does everyone else here at the club, of course. We still need a lot of time before we can win the Champions League. Winning the Bundesliga or the DFB-Pokal will be the next big step for us," Krösche said and added:

"We have a very good base, the most exciting squad in the league and a coach who has proven that he makes players better."

'Die Roten Bullen' reached the final of the DFB-Pokal last season, but were beaten 0-3 by Bayern München.
