It's over at 22
Automatically saved draft
As the newspaper "Blick" claims to have learned, Silvan Wallner is hanging up his soccer boots at the age of just 22. However, the reason for this decision is said to be neither an injury nor a lack of interest in the sport. His faith forbids the Blau-Weiß-Linz professional from playing football, according to a report in the Swiss newspaper.
As a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, the Swiss player is forbidden to work on Saturdays, according to the report. However, as Blau-Weiß Linz matches are usually scheduled for Saturdays, this poses a serious problem for the central defender.
Wallner, who moved to the Upper Austrian capital from FC Zurich in the summer, has played five games for Linz this season. The three-time U21 team player for our neighbors is officially absent due to illness, but the club has not yet commented on a possible end to his career.
