According to Christian Kesherer, the club’s media and communication official, in exclusive statements to Al Ain Sports.
“Paul Salzburg’s response, like any other football club, focuses mainly on sporting success, and we have done that very well in recent years, both domestically and in Europe,” says Kescherer.
He continued: “We have also developed a lot of talents that have transferred to the best European clubs, such as Erling Haaland, Sadio Mane, Naby Keita, Takumi Minamino, Marcel Sabitzer, Konrad Laimer and Deut Obicano.”
He added, “All these transfers brought a lot of revenues to the club’s treasury and had a positive impact on the development of our project, although we spend our resources in an account and invest in young talent only.”
He continued: “Our goals at the beginning of each season are to win all the local titles and to present strong levels at the European level.”
``He continued: “We know very well where we started in 2005, and how the club was at the time. We also know the size of the technical and financial gap between the Austrian League and the major European championships, but we have great ambition and good planning.”
And he added, “We previously played the European League semi-finals, and we can start this tournament and achieve its title in the near future.”
He continued: “We have a team of scouts at the highest level that tracks talent everywhere, and a center for monitoring and analyzing player statistics, which made us bring a lot of talent from all over the world to our club at an early age.”
“The successes that have been achieved in terms of talent development and the transfer of our players to big teams have in turn been a great motivation for many other young players who would otherwise not have come to Salzburg.”
In an interview with Al Ain Sports, Thomas Schneider, a 30-year-old fan of the club, said: “The club is proceeding according to a strong scientific and investment plan, and we have achieved strong financial and sports successes in 15 years.”
He added, “I look at the way we play, the speed of our players, and their insane pressure on the opponent. This is the identity of the team that is rooted in the conscience of the players, beginning in the youth stages.”
He concluded: “The whole world saw our performance against Liverpool, and the physical, mental and skillful strength of our players, and I confirm that Salzburg is coming with strength for European football, and the coming years are our years.”
