Rapid ready for the master fight: Klauss relies on offensive power!

The SK Rapid Vienna faces an important competitive game in the Allianz Stadium against the WAC, which will take place on Saturday. The expectations are high, both from the fans and the team that is ready to start the new football year after intensive preparation. Captain Matthias Seidl and coach Robert Klauss emphasized the great commitment and anticipation for the second half of the season, with 16,000 tickets for the game sold, such as OE24 reports . Klauss explained that both offensive creativity and defensive stability will be in demand against the fourth -placed WAC.

The requirements for the team are great: in the first half of the season, Rapid gave away points against apparently inferior opponents, which endangers the ambitions to win the championship title since 2008. Managing Director Sport Markus Katzer warns that Rapid is dealing with strong competitors such as Sturm Graz, Wiener Austria and Red Bull Salzburg. Nevertheless, hope remains alive, and according to Klauss, the team has prepared the challenges in the second half of the season by focusing on the cracking on the cracking of deep teams, as he explained it.

Personnel situation and contract discussions

With regard to the personnel situation at Rapid, Katzer commented on possible contract extensions, especially with coach Robert Klauß, whose contract runs until 2026. The sports director emphasized that there have already been some "loose conversations" about a longer remaining and that serious conversations will take place in the near future. Klauß himself was surprised by alleged interests of other clubs, but is still focused on how Laola1 reports .
