FC Liefering

From the 2012–13 season the club, formerly known as USK Anif, changed its name to FC Liefering. Liefering are sometimes called Red Bull Liefering, as they adapted the jerseys and team colors from Red Bull Salzburg and RB Leipzig. In the 2012–13 season, they won the Regionalliga West and, after two relegation playoff matches, they were promoted to the Austrian Football Second League.

They are the farm team of Red Bull Salzburg. They are not eligible for promotion.[2] In their first year, they finished third and, in the 2014–15 season, they finished second.

In June 2015, coach Peter Zeidler left the team and became coach of Red Bull Salzburg. He was succeeded by Thomas Letsch, who also followed Zeidler to Salzburg for two matches after Zeidler was fired there.

As a feeder club, the team fields very young players. In the next two seasons, the average age of the team was under twenty years old. Players like Samuel Tetteh or Gideon Mensah came to Salzburg from Ghana, other talented players came from the Red Bull Football Academy like Hannes Wolf or Luca Meisl.

In the 2016–17 season, Red Bull Salzburg (U19) won the UEFA Youth League. Most of the players came from Liefering.

In the 2020–21 season, Bo Svensson became coach of FC Liefering. In the winter, he went to Mainz 05 and Matthias Jaissle became coach of the team. At the end of the season, he was promoted to Red Bull Salzburg as head coach. He followed Jesse Marsch, who went to RB Leipzig. The season was the most successful in history. The team ended as runner-up, only one scored goal behind the champion FC Blau-Weiß Linz.

After the season ended, Kilian Schröcker, Fabian Windhager, Antonin Svoboda and Alexander Prass left the club.

In the 2021–22 season, Rene Aufhauser, former assistant coach with Red Bull Salzburg, became new head coach of FC Liefering. He also is coach of the UEFA Youth League team of Red Bull Salzburg. After finishing sixth, Aufhauser left the club.

For the 2022–23 season, Fabio Ingolitsch, the coach of the U18 team, became new headcoach of FC Liefering.
