RB Leipzig captain Willi Orbán has reached a historic milestone, making his 400th appearance for the club. The Hungarian defender achieved the landmark on November 7, 2026, further cementing his status as one of the most enduring figures in the team's history since their rise through the German football pyramid.
Orbán joined Leipzig in 2015 when the club was still in the 2. Bundesliga and has been a constant presence through their promotion to the top flight, establishment as a Bundesliga mainstay, and regular Champions League campaigns. The centre-back has worn the captain's armband for several seasons, leading the side to their first major trophy — the DFB-Pokal in 2023 — and a second cup triumph in 2024.
Only a handful of players have reached 400 appearances for RB Leipzig since the club's reformation in 2009, making Orbán's achievement a rare distinction in the organisation's relatively short history.
