In Alessandro Schöpf, Bundesliga third-placed WAC have brought in a 32-time Austrian international - he arrived in Wolfsberg on Monday. In an interview with the "Krone", the midfielder talks about his goals, the ÖFB team, Lionel Messi and the big gap in the MLS.

Alessandro Schöpf is back in Austria. For the first time in the Bundesliga - and at the age of 31. He left his Tyrolean homeland at the age of 15, trained with Bayern's 2014 champions under Guardiola alongside stars such as Robben and Ribery, made 143 Bundesliga appearances with Schalke and Bielefeld - before spending two-and-a-half years in the American MLS for Vancouver. Yesterday, Schöpf docked in Wolfsberg - where he signed a contract until the summer of 2026 plus an option. And the midfielder has big plans. .
