Five wins in the last six second division rounds - Admira are off to a flying start! Celtic loanee and goalkeeper Oluwayemi celebrated his debut in the 3:1 win against Sturm II and gave a recommendation.

With the 3-2 win against Vienna, Stripfing celebrated their first victory after six, in some cases bitter, defeats, thus escaping the relegation battle in the Second Division. More impressive, however, is Admira's current record, which was further consolidated on Easter Sunday. The 3:1 away win against Sturm II was the fifth victory in the last six rounds, the third in a row - something that has never happened since the Südstädter were relegated. And naturally allows the club to start thinking about the future on the pitch.
"We wanted tosee how he would do"  
 The debut of goalkeeper and Celtic loanee Tobi Oluwayemi was a first message in this regard, not a decision against the regular number one, Christoph Haas, but a decision in favor of the 20-year-old Englishman. "We wanted to see how he would do - important for him, for us, for Celtic Glasgow," explained sporting director Peter Stöger. "In principle, the coaches have a free hand, but this personnel matter was agreed." Oluwayemi certainly gave a recommendation...

Others from the large group of contracts expiring in the summer have been doing this for some time: Malicsek and Rasner are regular starters, as is Ristanic, who is getting back to the form he had before his injury and has scored in three of the last six games. Stöger is holding back with names, not wanting to give advisors any wild ideas. "But I have already held the first talks with managers." He is also expecting a delegation from Celtic soon. "There is a list of interesting players..."
