Club career
[edit]Early years
[edit]Ludewig started playing football at Barsbütteler SV and Willinghusener SC before moving to the youth academy of FC St. Pauli in 2014.[3][4][5] After just one year, he moved on to RB Leipzig. In November 2015, he made his debut for Leipzig's under-19 team in the Under 19 Bundesliga when he came off the bench for Przemysław Płacheta on the tenth matchday of the 2015–16 season against Hamburger SV in injury time.[6] In December 2015, he made his first appearance for Leipzig's under-17 team in the Under 17 Bundesliga against VfL Wolfsburg.[7] In August 2016, he scored his first three goals in the Under 17 Bundesliga in an 8–0 win against Niendorfer TSV.[8]
Ludewig was officially promoted to the under-19 ahead of the 2017–18 season. He scored his first goal in the Under 19 Bundesliga in August 2017 in a 2–0 victory against Hertha BSC.[9] Between September and December 2017, he also played three games for RB Leipzig in the UEFA Youth League.[10]
Red Bull Salzburg
[edit]Ludewig joined Austrian Football Bundesliga club Red Bull Salzburg in June 2018, signing a four-year contract.[11] He was also initially available for selection by reserve team FC Liefering.[12] He made his debut for Liefering in September 2018 in a game against FC Juniors OÖ.[13]
Loans
[edit]After having only appeared for Liefering through one and a half seasons, Ludewig joined Barnsley on loan on 9 January 2020.[14] After making 18 games for Barnsley in the EFL Championship and avoiding relegation, the loan was extended for another season in August 2020.[15]
After another four second-tier appearances for Barnsley, however, the loan was terminated prematurely in October 2020 and Ludewig was loaned to German Bundesliga club Schalke 04 for the remainder of the season.[16] A few days earlier, Manuel Baum, under whom Ludewig had played in the national under-20 side, had taken over as head coach of Schalke. In Gelsenkirchen Ludewig only made six league appearances as he had missed a large part of the season due to a metatarsal fracture suffered in December 2020.[17] Schalkern suffered a historic relegation at the end of the season.[18]
After one and a half years on loan in England and Germany, Ludewig returned to Salzburg for the 2021–22 season.[19] There, he made his debut in the Bundesliga in October 2021 against LASK.[20] However, this remained his only appearance for Salzburg beside one appearance in an Austrian Cup game against SKN St. Pölten.[21]
On 13 January 2022, Ludewig was loaned to Willem II in Eredivisie until the end of the season.[22] In Tilburg, however, he was also unable to assert himself and was only utilised four times in the Eredivisie.[23] The club suffered relegation at the end of the season.[24]
On 24 June 2022, Ludewig was sent on a one-season loan to Danish Superliga club AaB.[25]
On 11 July 2023, Ludewig moved on a new loan to TSV 1860 Munich in 3. Liga.[26] He started the 2023–24 season with an appearance against 1. FC Stockheim in the Bavarian Cup.[27]
