Robert Almer,[10] Olarenwaju Kayode,[11] Ognjen Vukojević,[12] Roi Kahat,[13] and Richard Windbichler[14] transferred to Austria Wien. Manuel Ortlechner became a reserve team player for Austria and also became an assistant coach for the under–14 team for the club.[15] Kevin Friesenbichler was loaned to Austria with the option to purchase after a season.[16] Heinz Lindner,[17] Daniel Royer,[18] Sascha Horvath,[19] Markus Suttner[20] and Martin Harrer[21] left the club.
