Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen The next new signing has been confirmed. After Karim Onisiwo (from German Bundesliga side Mainz 05), Bundesliga runners-up Salzburg have signed Maximiliano Caufriez on loan from French second division side Clermont Foot. The 27-year-old Belgian was most recently on loan at Valencia. In La Liga, however, the central defender only played in one competitive match and was often not even in the squad.
Nevertheless, he should stabilize the defence of the Bulls, who have an option to buy Caufriez. "We are delighted that we were able to finalize this transfer with Maximiliano Caufriez. He is an absolute top professional who is very quick, aggressive and already has a lot of experience. I am convinced that his qualities will be good for the team and that he will help us move forward," Rouven Schröder was quoted as saying in a press release.
Caufriez, who will wear shirt number 2 until the end of his loan at the end of June, said: "My first impressions of the club are excellent and I'm already very excited to train with the team for the first time and get to know my new teammates and the coaching team. I am a player who always gives everything for his club and works hard to achieve his goals. And one of those goals is to win titles with FC Red Bull Salzburg." He will already take part in team training on Tuesday.
The Bulls will host Atletico Madrid on Wednesday (9pm) in the last Champions League match of the season. Caufriez is of course not eligible to play. As is well known, it is no longer possible for Salzburg to progress in the top flight. On Sunday, things get serious at national level for the first time in 2025. At LASK, the squad of neo-Salzburg coach will be looking to advance to the cup semi-finals.
