Manprit Sarkaria (center) leaves Austria.
Austria does not receive a license, trembles at the forced relegation. Attacker Manprit Sarkaria jumps off, following ex-trainer Christian Ilzer to storm.
Dark clouds over the distribution circuit! Austria is in financial difficulties. In the first instance there was no Bundesliga license. Seven million euros are said to be missing. After the bizarre statement by Luka Sur, the “governor” of Investor Insignia, fans are seriously worried about the continued existence of professional operations. He responded on Tuesday: “The license was never our obligation.”
Sports director and trainer Peter Stöger announced his departure last week. Reason: no sporting perspective. In addition to the contract of the last master coach of the violets (2013), the working papers of many players are also running out. In the current situation, you might find it difficult to persuade you to stay.
Austria has already lost one of them. Manprit Sarkaria moves to Sturm Graz. The “Kleine Zeitung” caused a sensation with this transfer bang. The sheet reports the transfer-free transfer as fixed. The 24-year-old is following Christian Ilzer to Styria. Ex-coach Ilzer left the Viennese last summer for the Blackys and is currently fourth in the championship round. Stöger and Austria are fighting for “first place” in the relegation round.
Other expiring contracts: Alexander Grünwald, Michael Madl, Christoph Schösswendter, Stephan Zwierschitz, Thomas Ebner, Eric Palmer-Brown, Christoph Monschein, Andreas Poulsen, Stefan Radulovic.
