FC Liefering GmbH is an Austrian association football club, originally from Liefering, Salzburg. It currently plays in the Second League, the second tier of Austrian football. Since 2012, Liefering has been a reserve team for Austrian Football Bundesliga side Red Bull Salzburg.[1]

In December 2011 Red Bull Salzburg signed a cooperation with FC Pasching (Regionalliga Mitte) and USK Anif (Regionalliga West). The coach of the Juniors, Gerald Baumgartner, left Salzburg and became new coach of FC Pasching. Also players went to Pasching and Anif. After the 2011–12 season, the new coach Peter Hyballa left the club and became new head coach of SK Sturm Graz. Liefering's ongoing presence in the Erste Liga continues to create unrest, with average an attendance of under 500, many people believe the club is not good for the league. However the club promotes youth and has been a key factor in Red Bull Salzburg's 2016–17 UEFA Youth League side, who ultimately won the tournament.
