Squad20 Sep 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Tobias Pellegrini

36 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Austria Salzburg lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

Daniel Barden: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Austria Salzburg have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad20 Sep 2027

The step up is real for Tarik Sadiković

At 19 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad20 Sep 2027

Words exchanged at Austria Salzburg

Oliver Steurer 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.

Match18 Sep 2027

Bernhard Zimmermann the difference as Austria Salzburg beat First Vienna

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Bernhard Zimmermann. 1‑0 against First Vienna, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Squad20 Sep 2027

Tarik Sadiković signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Tarik Sadiković and Austria Salzburg agree another 4 years.

Player ratings20 Sep 2027

Bernhard Zimmermann was the difference for Austria Salzburg

Marked 7.82. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

Loan watch20 Sep 2027

Edin Omerović has seen enough of Austria Klagenfurt

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Austria Salzburg, and 0 appearances in 9 say he has earned the hearing.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

Michael Prass: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 1‑0, already talking about the next one.

Squad30 Aug 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Tobias Pellegrini

60 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Austria Salzburg lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match25 Aug 2027

Austria Salzburg bow out of the cup

St. Pölten go through and Austria Salzburg go home, 0‑3 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

Squad30 Aug 2027

90 days out for Denis Kahrimanović after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Austria Salzburg will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Market30 Aug 2027

Austria Salzburg turn down Stripfing for Florian Rieder

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

The dugout30 Aug 2027

Wisler Lazarre keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Austria Salzburg may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad30 Aug 2027

A one-man rearguard from Daniel Barden

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

The terraces30 Aug 2027

A cup hiding at St. Pölten leaves Austria Salzburg explaining themselves

0-3, and long before the end the away end had switched from encouragement to something considerably more pointed. Nobody rings a phone-in about losing narrowly.

The terraces30 Aug 2027

Supporters turn on the $500.0K sale of Luca Meisl

He is going to LASK, the club has $500.0K it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.

Match28 Aug 2027

4 matches without a win for Austria Salzburg

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Austria Salzburg are no longer polite ones.

Squad5 Jul 2027

The knee: Tobias Pellegrini out for 120 days

120 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Austria Salzburg lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Market5 Jul 2027

Sebastian Aigner asks to leave Austria Salzburg

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Words exchanged at Austria Salzburg

Joe Lewis 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.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Words at Austria Salzburg training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Milan Tučić is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market5 Jul 2027

Talks stall between Austria Salzburg and Joe Lewis

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Wisler Lazarre is a square peg at Austria Salzburg

The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.

Boardroom5 Jul 2027

Intake day at the Austria Salzburg academy

5 arrivals, an average age nobody would call a squad, and a set of parents being shown around a building their sons will spend more time in than at home. The scouting has already happened; today is only the paperwork.

The dugout5 Jul 2027

The manager makes an example of Daniel Barden

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout5 Jul 2027

The manager has not finished forgetting Paul Lipczinski's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

In brief
