Marco Sulzner: The young lottery star on the road to success with Vienna!

Marco Sulzner, LASK's rising talent, has impressed with impressive performances this season, including a crucial assist in the Cup quarter-finals against RB Salzburg. For his outstanding efforts, the 21-year-old was voted lottery young star of the year, where he won by over 2,000 votes over Rapid's Nikolaus Wurmbrand. In an emotional statement, Sulzner expressed his gratitude for the support of his fans and emphasized that he would like to continue his development both as a player and as a personality. “I am extremely grateful that I can train regularly with the professionals,” said Sulzner, making it clear that he has his sights firmly set on his goal of being active in the professional team. This award gives him the necessary tailwind to support the Linz team decisively in the qualifying round crown reported.

Sulzner under pressure at Vienna

Sulzner, who is currently on loan at Vienna, is attracting attention with his consistent performances. Coach Alexander Zellhofer trusts him in all 19 league games, where the versatile midfielder is used both as a six and as an eighth. Sulzner played a key role in Vienna's promotion back to the Admiral 2nd League, while the team currently sits fifth in the table, despite a slight dip in form in recent games. Sulzner himself remains optimistic: "I'm concentrating on Vienna and trying to play football as well as possible. I'm very happy here," he explained in an interview with LAOLA1.

For Sulzner, returning to LASK is still an option, although he is aware of the high competition in the squad. The 19-year-old has played an essential role at Vienna so far and plans to continue honing his talent in order to possibly start in the upper league next season. His excellent performance and previous irreplaceability for Vienna underline his potential, while at the same time keeping LASK's expectations in mind. “I will work hard for my chance,” he added with a hint of confidence.
