The 24 year old goalie Osman Hadzikic After his guest appearance at the Swiss club FC Zurich, including a six-month loan to Inter Zapresic (Croatia), he had been without a contract since the beginning of August and was able to be sold to coach Zvonimir Soldo’s team despite numerous other offers. The former ÖFB-U21 team player (5 missions) receives a three-year contract until 2023.
“Want to raise the quality”
Managing Director Sport Franz Wohlfahrt is happy about the commitment: “I know what Osman can do. He was number one at Austria. If there is a chance to get such a goalkeeper, then you have to strike. ”According to Wohlfahrt, the transfer aims to be as broad as possible in the goalie position.
“We have closely observed the situation with our goalkeepers and want to improve the quality of the entire team through Hadzikic’s commitment. The season is long and we need three very good goalkeepers. A lot of good things come from their own youth, but the Bundesliga is still too early for some. We cannot afford to make any mistakes here, ”said Wohlfahrt.
Hadzikic has a lot of Bundesliga experience. The goalkeeper played 57 games in Austria’s top division for Vienna Austria and also guarded the violet’s goal 11 times in the Europa League. In Switzerland he made 20 appearances in the second team of FC Zurich. At the Croatian first division club Inter Zapresic he stood between posts 5 times.
Born in Klosterneuburg, he will train for the first time with his new teammates at FC Flyeralarm Admira on Monday.
