SK Sturm Graz are likely to lose their home stadium on Thursday due to persistent turf problems. What does the Small newspaper.
“Above all, I want to play at Liebenau, this is our pitch. But I already see a risk of injury,” says Sturms sporting director Andreas Schicker.
But this wish is likely not to be fulfilled. Because like this Small newspaper The Merkur Arena is reported to be closed by the Bundesliga on Thursday due to the catastrophic condition of the turf.
A Senate 3 committee will present the decision. Even after the league duel with WAC, the Bundesliga is said to have asked Sturm for a written statement to find out if the pitch is in better condition next Sunday against Red Bull Salzburg.
According to the stadium operator Messe Congress Graz, only the area around the south gate is poor and the rest of the field is suitable for the Bundesliga; parts of the lawn cannot be replaced until Sunday evening. So the Graz team will have to move to the Wörthersee stadium in Klagenfurt for the coup against Salzburg.
