Kevin Kampl to donate 4,444 litres of beer to RB Leipzig fans
Kevin Kampl will donate 4,444 litres of beer to RB Leipzig fans as he bids farewell to the club ahead of their Matchday 18 fixture against Bayern Munich.
At the start of January it was announced that Kampl would leave by mutual consent due to "personal reasons", with his official send-off scheduled to take place before kick-off against Bayern on Saturday.
As a token of his appreciation to Leipzig fans after more than eight years at the Red Bull Arena, the 35-year-old will donate 4,444 litres of local beer brand Ur-Krostitzer in a nod to his shirt number, 44.
Furthermore, Leipzig have announced that any club jerseys bought on the day can have his number printed on the back free of charge.
