The 2021-22 campaign was a season of historic triumph for RB Salzburg as Die Mozartstädter clinched a sensational double, winning their ninth consecutive Austrian Bundesliga title and the UNIQA ÖFB Cup. Under the guidance of young manager Matthias Jaissle, the club also achieved a major breakthrough by reaching the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 for the first time in history. Spearheading this success was the clinical young forward Karim Adeyemi, whose 19 league goals earned him the league's top scorer title and proved decisive in a season built on attacking youth and a definitive arrival on the European main stage.
