He is probably THE hottest transfer stock in Austria at the moment - Sturm's Alexander Prass. According to reports, several top clubs are chasing the jewel of the double winner, who had a strong EURO. The "Krone" asked the player himself what the current situation is.

His picture can be seen oversized in the current "Gazzetta dello Sport", Italy's soccer bible. Why? Because Bologna are still bidding for Alexander Prass. 15 million is the transfer fee rumored by the Italian media, Bologna sporting director and former star striker Marco di Vaio is said to have been courting Prass even before the European Championship - now even more so. However, the competition is said to be good with Europa League winners Atalanta Bergamo and Eintracht Frankfurt.

After Rasmus Höjlund (Atalanta at the time), Sturm could be lining up the next Italian deal with Alex Prass.

"Nothing finalized yet"
Reason enough to ask the ÖFB team player himself what the current situation is. Are these stressful times? "Why?" asks Prass. "Of course there are some inquiries and there are negotiations from some sides, which I know, but I'm not stressed. The situation is very good," says the midfield star, who knows what he has in SK Sturm. The Upper Austrian, whose transfer to France fell through at the last minute last summer, does not want to be congratulated on an imminent foreign deal just yet. "That's not appropriate. Nothing has been finalized yet, there's a lot up in the air." It remains exciting.
