Assan Ouedraogo (born 9 May 2006, age 20) is a German central midfielder with the frame to match modern Bundesliga football, standing at a commanding 6ft 4in (1.92m). His senior career has been shaped almost entirely at RB Leipzig, where he has made 23 league appearances and scored four goals across three seasons.
The 2025-26 season was his most productive league campaign, with four goals in 19 appearances for Leipzig. In 2026-27, his involvement has been more limited so far, with one Bundesliga appearance and one Champions League appearance, giving him two outings across all competitions for the club.
Ouedraogo has also stepped into the Germany picture this season, making one appearance in World Cup qualifying and scoring once. His market value is around £8.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
For now, his career is a Leipzig one: a tall, developing midfielder with early Bundesliga, European and international experience, but still at the stage where his next run of games will say more than the price tag.
