Positive feedback for Austria Salzburg: President takes stock!
In the first weeks of the 2nd division, Austria Salzburg is quite satisfactory. President Claus Salzmann takes a positive balance: With seven points from seven games, the team said well, even if some games, such as Liefering and St. Pölten, were unhappy. "The feedback from different sides is consistently positive," reports Salzmann, who also praises the support of the loud fans. These continue to stand behind the team and make the stadium a real cauldron.
An important update for the association is Hubert Palfinger's calling as the new vice president. The 56-year-old Salzburg entrepreneur not only takes on representative tasks, but will also play an important role in strengthening the club structures. Palfinger is enthusiastic about Austria Salzburg and its commitment in football. In doing so, he will bring in his expertise to focus on social projects while withdrawing from sports and cultural sponsorship. David Rettenbacher, chairman of the association, emphasizes the importance of Palfinger and is looking forward to working together with President Salzmann.
Financial challenges and sporting goals
The already tense financial means of the association currently do not allow new additions in winter. "The season is completely financed and our budget is exhausted," explains Salzmann. The squad break in summer turned out to be greater than expected, and now the main goal remains to secure the class and consolidate in the coming years.
Talks with potential new sponsors are currently underway. Sponsors play a crucial role in Austrian football and are necessary to guarantee financial stability. They enable investments in players, infrastructure and youth promotion, which is of great importance for the long -term future of the association. At a time when teams such as Sturm Graz and FC Red Bull Salzburg are supported by powerful sponsors, the pursuit of new partnerships for Austria Salzburg is particularly important in order to be able to survive in hard competition.
"We have to have a good hand to convince sponsors of our way," admits President Salzmann. The need to secure yourself financially will be one of the central challenges for the association in the coming months.
With the new Vice President Hubert Palfinger and the loud support of the fans, the association sees the future optimistically into the future, even if the coming months will require a lot of work and patience.
