Before yesterday’s Bundesliga game of the Innviertler team in Sturm Graz, what had been suggested in the last few days was finally fixed. “We agree with Marco,” said Rapid coach Dietmar Kühbauer.
It is logical that no agreement could be reached in the end during the winter transfer period. “There are certain limits that are not exceeded with a player who is free in the summer,” said Rapid Sports director Zoran Barisic and Kühbauer. The 350,000 euros requested by Ried could have been received in summer 2020. At that time Rapid was on the one hand under pressure after the last minute sale of Thomas Murg and had also made enough from this sale and that of Stefan Schwab to spend something.
This time the Vienna club fund was left empty after the failed transfer of Taxiarchis Fountas. Also, Ried is said to have asked Rapid to participate in the event that Grüll was later sold overseas. That also plays a role in today’s transfer business when a club is really under pressure. And that was not the case with Rapid.
No money to train
Now, the Viennese will probably not even pay the around 100,000 euros in training compensation that would otherwise be owed for such transfers. Marco Grüll will turn 23 on July 6. If Rapid notifies you by July 7, this payment to SV Ried will also be canceled. This can also be assumed after the new season begins on July 25.
Rapid is said to have recently offered 100,000 euros for an immediate Grüll exchange and raised it to 150,000 euros on Monday. That wasn’t enough for Ried to let go of one of the best players in the fall in the relegation battle. After all, the competition has intensified in the battle for relegation.
