Giovanna Hoffmann: RB Leipzig's star shines at EM 2025!
The young and talented Giovanna Hoffmann, who began her career in Bremerhaven, is currently causing a sensation in German women's football. In the summer of 2024, she took the step to RB Leipzig and not only made a name for herself in the Bundesliga, but also became the club's first German national player. But that's not all the 26-year-old has to offer.
The Women's European Championship in Switzerland is just around the corner on July 4, 2025, and Hoffmann is part of the squad that is preparing for the preliminary round games against Poland, Denmark and Sweden. Your journey so far has been remarkable. After an impressive debut for the DFB women at Wembley Stadium against England, where she contributed an assist to make it 3-0, she has captured the hearts of many football fans. It was one of the most special experiences of her life, with the euphoria of the first game under coach Christian behind her.
From Bremerhaven to Leipzig
It's hard to believe that the proud Bremerhaven native already made 21 appearances for German youth national teams at the age of 21. After her time at SC Lehe-Spaden, where it all began, she moved to Werder Bremen in 2012. There she experienced two promotions to the Bundesliga before moving to SC Freiburg. Four years later, after reaching the DFB Cup final in 2023, it was time for a new step. Your move to RB Leipzig is not only a career move, but also a sign of the club's development. Hoffmann proudly wears number seven, her favorite number.
But the player is not only active on the pitch. Giovanna Hoffmann has completed a law degree and is a qualified lawyer. Her roots lie in a religious home, and she also lives her faith publicly, which is underlined by her involvement in “Football with Vision”, a Christian initiative to inspire young people.
A look into the future
Looking at the challenges ahead, one might think that Euro 2025 would be the highlight of her career - but Hoffmann and her teammates are determined to bring sustainability to women's football. Alexandra Popp, the vice-captain of the DFB team, recently spoke about the importance of maintaining the increasing interest in women's football after the European Championships.
The DFB team has already prepared intensively for the coming period, with friendly matches and World Cup qualification on the agenda. Through her achievements, Hoffmann has not only shed a new light on herself, but also on women's football in general. Her commitment and the positive perception of women's football in everyday life are points that she and her colleagues have made their goals.
The DFB women and their coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg agree: there is still a long way to go and joint efforts are needed to increase interest and awareness, both in football and in broader social aspects. There could be exciting times ahead with Giovanna Hoffmann and her team, and many fans hope to be able to accompany them on their journey.
