Option or not?
Option or not? Tug of war for WAC jewel
The "Wolves" will be up against runners-up Altach on Saturday. Talent Niki Veratschnig is being hunted - and in the worst case could leave for free.
Wolfsberg's jewel Nikolas Veratschnig is being hunted - and could escape WAC! The talent of the U21 team player has not gone undiscovered on the right side of the "Wolves". .
It is therefore not surprising that the Feldkirchner has already attracted the attention of many clubs. According to information from Krone, Salzburg, LASK, Bochum, Darmstadt and even MLS club Vancouver have already knocked on the door of the 21-year-old during the winter transfer period - in some cases with concrete offers and invitations.
The development of young players suits us. Niki has one year left on his contract.
Manfred SCHMID, WAC-Trainer
Riegler: "Option in the contract"
So what does Niki's future look like? "He's not the only one being chased - it shows that the development of the young players suits us. And as far as I know, Niki still has a year left on his contract," emphasizes WAC head coach Manfred Schmid. Wolfsberg boss Dietmar Riegler, on the other hand, recently said: "Veratschnig has an option, which will be exercised soon. He has a great future."
Uncertainties about the contract situation
However, the contract situation of the WAC academy graduate is anything but clear. Insiders claim that there is no option for a further year in his contract. On the other hand, a separate working paper signed until 2025 is said to have existed for some time. The last word has not yet been spoken - it is possible that it will degenerate into a legal dispute. The fact is: losing Veratschnig on a free transfer would be extremely bitter.
Stary at the KFV
WAC sports coordinator Roman Stary will - if everything goes according to plan at the upcoming board meeting - become the new head of youth development at the Carinthian Football Association (KFV), replacing Erwin Svensek.
