Austrian trainers in an international context

The successes of Austrian trainers in the Bundesliga are historically remarkable. Christian Ilzer switches from Sturm Graz to TSG Hoffenheim and becomes the 17th Austrian coach in the German Bundesliga. Successful trainers such as Ernst Happel, Max Merkel and Oliver Glasner have won championship titles and European Cup victories in the past. Happel, for example, won the championship titles with Hamburger SV in 1982 and 1983 and the national championship cup 1983. Glasner led Eintracht Frankfurt in 2022 to the Europa-League and also brought Wolfsburg to the Champions League.

Stöger himself successfully worked with 1. FC Köln and led the club back to the Bundesliga in 2014 and in 2016 to the Europa League. His short time at Borussia Dortmund, in which he achieved the Champions League qualification, also shows his influence in European football.

These current developments in Austrian football underline the dynamics and the potential that both the clubs and the trainers bring. The coming months could be groundbreaking for Rapid Vienna and the other clubs, especially in the upcoming European Cup play-offs.
