However, Thomas Silberberger will likely not be able to call upon the 20-year-old in the league clash with FC Red Bull Salzburg.
Agreement with Salzburg, but ...
According to information from "Sky Sport Austria", there is reportedly an agreement between Salzburg and the Carinthian club. This "gentlemen's agreement" states that the player should not be used in direct clashes.
The catch: This agreement is said to have been made verbally and not in writing, which makes an agreement for Verhounig to play in the duel after all, within the realm of possibility.
According to the report, Verhounig is reportedly eager to play against his former club, where he was under contract for several years.
