Market

Business is business: Vesel Demaku goes

Red Bull Salzburg paid $1.3M and Altach took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad

Mike-Steven Bähre in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Altach this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Altach training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jan Matoušek 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.

Match

Jake Beesley’s goal not enough for Altach

Jake Beesley scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Red Bull Salzburg, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad

No hiding place for Dejan Stojanović

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Dejan Stojanović, and the manager let it.

Squad

Too much change too quickly at Altach

12 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Squad

A move Jake Beesley would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Jake Beesley is living that version at Altach, and it tends to show in the first month.

Market

SV Ried come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Altach did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market

Ousmane Diawara attracts admirers

The name of Ousmane Diawara has come up in conversations Altach were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad

Dejan Stojanović signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Dejan Stojanović commits to Altach for another 3 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Altach

Mike-Steven Bähre 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.

Match

Altach come up short against Sturm Graz

Sturm Graz left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Market

Still no ink between Altach and Benedikt Zech

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Altach, another week without a signature from Benedikt Zech.

Squad

Too much change too quickly at Altach

7 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Market

Salif Tietietta told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Salif Tietietta has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Altach.
