Austria Klagenfurt have a clear priority on the transfer market: "We need to generate more goals!" Regional league side Treibach have brought in a Greek national who last played there in the 3rd division. Kurstädter have also recorded two departures.

The transfer window in soccer opens on January 1, 2025. And Austria Klagenfurt is preparing. The priority? A striker is needed! "Paying a transfer fee is not feasible for us. We want a player on loan who is training with a first team but wants to gain match practice at a high level in Austria - I am in contact with many clubs," explains sporting director Günther Gorenzel. It's clear to him: "Bobzien works great - but all around we haven't created enough goal threat!"

Greek citizen
Regional league side Treibach, on the other hand, have already strengthened their squad - with a Greek national. Nikolaos Kokkas (20) is returning to Carinthia after two years, most recently playing for third division club Panthrakikos Komotini in his parents' homeland.

However, the 20-year-old is a true St. Veit native and has also played for AKA WAC and Austria. "He can be used flexibly in the offense," said sports boss Stefan Weitensfelder, who gave up two men: Striker Luka Jerin is gone, looking for a club. Felix Fürstaller is moving to lower league side Feldkirchen.
