Germany’s international Lukas Klostermann has agreed a contract extension at RB Leipzig until June 2024, keeping him in the club.
“I am delighted to have renewed my deal at RB Leipzig and now there is certainty regarding my future.” said Klostermann in a statement.
“I feel very confident in the team and in the community, have always had trust here and have become a senior international player.”
The flexible defender joined Leipzig in 2014, after being elevated to the 2. Bundesliga and made 159 appearances in all competitions for the side, contributing 11 goals and assisting 10. The new deal ensures that he stays with the club for at least four years more.
Sports director Markus Krosche said: “Lukas is one of our absolute best performers and, despite being just 23 years old. He is also a very accomplished player who has made amazing progress with us so far.”
In March 2019, Klostermann made his national team debut with Serbia in a 1-1 draw.
In 2019-20, Klostermann played 33 times under Julian Nagelsmann, helping them to finish third in the Bundesliga – five points ahead of Bayern Munich’s leaders – and the Champions League quarter-finals.
