Austria Salzburg recruits from league rival

Second-tier club SV Austria Salzburg introduces a new attacker.

Tamar Crnkic (20) joins from league rival Schwarz-Weiß Bregenz, moving to the Salzach. The striker recently impressed as a trialist for Austria.

"I'm really looking forward to celebrating many successes together with the team and our fans. I've been excellently received from day one and immediately felt comfortable in the team. That made it much easier for me to settle in," said the new man.

Scored at 18 in Maxglan

Sporting director Roland Kirchler clarifies: "Tamar knows where the goal is – that was already known, and he has impressively demonstrated it again in training sessions and test matches. He's a great young guy and a really good footballer. We are happy to have him with us and are convinced that he will develop excellently here."

He already scored his first competitive goal in Maxglan at the age of 18. In August 2024, he found the net as an opponent for Altach Amateure.

The two-time ÖFB U17 national team player gained his first professional experience last season in Bregenz. There, he scored one goal and provided two assists in 24 games in the ADMIRAL 2. Liga.
