Felix Wolf puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Mattersburg, and it is not being withdrawn.

Tommaso Macchioni due for a Mattersburg medical

Everything agreed with Rapid Wien, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad26 Jan 2032

A row about effort at Mattersburg

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Marko Fuchs was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets26 Jan 2032

Mattersburg rebuffed over Stefan Lainer

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Admira Wacker have kept their man, and Mattersburg go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad26 Jan 2032

Words exchanged at Mattersburg

Dylan Reid and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad26 Jan 2032

Mattersburg lose Patrick Knoflach

38 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Transfer targets26 Jan 2032

Mattersburg ask about Jussef Nasrawe

A loan enquiry to SV Ried: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

Squad26 Jan 2032

The formation has left Philipp Grillitsch behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Mattersburg will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

The dugout26 Jan 2032

Michael Lange knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Michael Lange trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Match19 Jan 2032

Mattersburg sink to position 10

4 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

Transfer targets19 Jan 2032

Mattersburg rebuffed over Turpal-Ali Ibishev

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Sturm Graz have kept their man, and Mattersburg go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad19 Jan 2032

Tempers go at Mattersburg

Ryan Ogam 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.

Transfer targets19 Jan 2032

Mattersburg ask about Mauro Furtado

A loan enquiry to Sporting CP: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

Transfer targets19 Jan 2032

Mattersburg try to borrow Stefan Lainer

Admira Wacker have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Market19 Jan 2032

Philipp Grillitsch already looking beyond Mattersburg

He signed expecting a bigger stage than the one he found. It has not taken long, and it has not taken the dressing room long to notice either.

Market19 Jan 2032

A long bet from Mattersburg on Philipp Grillitsch

He is 18, and nobody at Mattersburg signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

Squad19 Jan 2032

Philipp Grillitsch stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Philipp Grillitsch and Mattersburg agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The dugout19 Jan 2032

Tiago Franco knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Mattersburg, and both men came out saying it was fine.
