Rapid Vienna: Hoffmann warns of excessive championship expectations!

Hütteldorf, Österreich - The Admiral Bundesliga is currently as exciting as it has not been for a long time. Rapid Vienna, with a deficit of nine points, has the chance with the upcoming division of points to fight the first championship since 2008. However, Managing Director Steffen Hofmann remains careful and warns of excessive expectations: "We have lost the first three games, you don't have to start talking about the title," he said, while the team prepared for an important game in the Conference League against Borac Banja Luka href = "https://www.laola1.at/de/fussball/bundesliga/news/rapids-steffen-hofmann---nicht-anfangen--vom-tel-zu-reden-/"> laola1.at ).

The previous services of the Hütteldorfer failed, as Hofmann stated. The missed start of the season is partly due to the failure of Guido Burgstaller, which the team has heavily burdened. Despite a recent 5-0 defeat against Altach, the mood remains carefully optimistic. The restructuring in the squad and the associated adjustments required time, and Hofmann refers to the special challenges that occurred in particular last year ( Kurier ).

Hofmann's versatile role

Since November 2022, Hofmann has been the managing director of Rapid and is responsible for numerous areas, including marketing strategies and communication with fans. Previously, he was active as a player and in various coaching functions. In an interview, he emphasized that the expectations of the fans are high and that future decisions should be made with a cooler head: "We make our decisions with fewer emotions than our supporters," emphasized Hofmann. He pursues the goal of making Rapid competitive against teams like Red Bull Salzburg in order to pave the way back to sporting success.
