They have dominated that league for 40 years and only twice in all that time have they been even semi challenged and that was dortmund 10 years ago but that was only down to klopp and before that SV Hamburg c40 years ago.
BM are an absolute monster and are now the world's 3rd richest club ahead of MU. To challenge IMO is to do what City have done and permanently reshape the landscape and not what BD did by winning back to back bundesligas as impressive as that was BECAUSE Bayern are about to make it 9/9 since then
Time will tell of course but Leipzig are much better positioned than any other German club to challenge Bayern going forward. Not just in regards to the 50+1 rule, they have a network of feeder clubs and its impressive how they attract young talent by giving them contracts with relatively low release clauses.
