Striker gone in the summer
Goalkeeper was always a fixed profession for the WAC “Elvis”!
The WAC's new "one", Luki Gütlbauer, has a curious taste in music, pushes himself with videos before games and imitates grandpa and uncle. And the commitment of an attacker is coming to an end in the summer. .
Elvis Presley, Sting, Queen and Dire Straits - no, that's not the playlist of 53-year-old WAC head coach Manfred Schmid. But that of Lukas Gütlbauer. A little atypical for a 23-year-old. "I just like older music. I also like listening to Austropop - and classical piano music," grins the Upper Austrian, who prioritizes the legendary Elvis above all.
That's why "Elvis" Gütlbauer also wants to rock the WAC goal. He was officially chosen by Schmid as the new number 1 and will now definitely finish this season as the regular goalkeeper. "That's been my goal since I arrived here in 2022 - now I have to repay the trust," emphasizes Gütlbauer.
Atletico goalie as a role model
On Saturday, Blau-Weiß Linz will be the second qualifying group win in a row. And it's not just Luki's taste in music that is original, but also his match preparation. "I watch highlight videos of the best goalies in the world on the internet before every game. I visualize that and use it to push myself. If I had to pick one, Jan Oblak from Atlético Madrid would be my favorite," says Gütlbauer.
Path as goalkeeper preprogrammed
The fact that the 1.92-meter man became a goalkeeper of all things was preprogrammed by his family. "My grandfather and uncle were both goalkeepers in the lower and regional leagues during their lifetimes," explains the quadruple uncle from Kremsmünster - for whom family is the greatest asset: the tattoos dedicated to his grandfather, parents and sisters also stand for this.
Zimmermann will leave
Bitter news from Bernie Zimmermann: he tore the cruciate ligament in his left knee and was rushed to the doctors at his home club Rapid. Signing the loan player is no longer an option.
