While everything is currently revolving around goalkeepers at the city rivals, strikers are the number one topic at SV Austria Salzburg.

According to the "Salzburger Nachrichten", Austria has secured a new attacker in Tamar Crnkic (20). The Austrian was recently a trialist and will now receive a contract. However, Crnkic is not expected to be the only new striker for Salzburg.

Limited Minutes in the 2. Bundesliga

According to the report, Mohammad Mahmoud (21) is said to be on the verge of a move from Elversberg to the Mozartstadt. However, he played no role for the German Bundesliga promoted side last season, remaining without an appearance in the league and cup.

Overall, the striker, who was trained in Bochum, made four brief appearances for Elversberg in the 2. Bundesliga. Austria sporting director Roland Kirchler sees Mahmoud as a "very interesting player, but we will see what the next few days bring."
