After Schmid's departure
Blau-Weiß Linz sign goalkeeper from Manchester United
Blau-Weiß Linz have compensated for the departure of Nicolas Schmid by signing a talented goalkeeper on loan! The 20-year-old Czech Radek Vitek is moving from Manchester United to the Linz Bundesliga club until the end of the season.
Schmid in turn went to Portsmouth in the second English division, as was made official on Wednesday. The 27-year-old had been in goal for Linz since the summer of 2018. He signed with Portsmouth for two years with an option for a further season.
Vitek played for English fourth division club Accrington Stanley last season. Now the 1.98-meter goalkeeper is set to gain match practice in the Austrian top flight.
"... that we as a club have done some things right!"
Christoph Schößwendter, sporting director of Blau-Weiß, welcomed a "very talented young goalkeeper who has already gained a lot of experience in England and is a member of the Manchester United goalkeeping team".
He was pleased about the prestige of getting a player from the "Red Devils". This shows "that we as a club have done some things right and are on the right track," said Schößwendter.
