Transfer targets10 Aug 2026
Hertha Wels bid $770.0K for Laurenz Orgler
The offer went to Rapid Wien this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.
Boardroom10 Aug 2026
Hertha Wels go back to the board over Emmanuel Michael
The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $815.1K — a club that wants Emmanuel Michael enough to be asked twice.

Too dear: Hertha Wels walk away from Emmanuel Michael
$740.0K was the most the club would pay and LASK were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.

Tempers go at Hertha Wels
Tolga Günes was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Hertha Wels make their move for Benedikt Huber
$34.0K on the table at Austria Salzburg. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Hertha Wels promote Stefan Ulmer from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Stefan Ulmer has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
