ÖFB team facing biggest challenges: Who will replace Posch against Serbia?

Austrian football is currently centered around the two talents Stefan Posch and Philipp Mwene, who could play crucial roles in the coming week. While the ÖFB is encountering some personnel problems for the upcoming double qualifier against Serbia, the Bundesliga club Hoffenheim is reporting positive news regarding Posch. The 21-year-old defender has extended his contract with the club until 2022, as Welt.de reported. Hoffenheim's sports director Alexander Rosen praised Posch as a "fast and strong defender" who has also proven himself in the Champions League.

Meanwhile, the Austrian national team is struggling with personnel shortages. Regular right-back Stefan Posch is out for the games against Serbia, a bitter defensive defeat for the team. Younger players like Philipp Mwene, who was originally supposed to switch from the left side to the right, are considered alternatives. However, Samprass, who was scheduled to play for Mwene, was injured during warm-ups and has not trained since Vienna.at holds on. If both players are unavailable, it could be a difficult mission for the ÖFB team to defeat the Serbian national team.

The situation puts additional pressure on the coaching and support staff, who are now forced to find creative solutions. While Posch is working towards his national career and dreaming of the Champions League stage, he is faced with the challenge of not being available for the upcoming game with the ÖFB team.
