Is now the second player after Amankwah Forson to be brought back early from the loan. I can’t imagine that both will become regular players in the second half of the season. If they should have stayed with the loan clubs until the summer, they could have attacked fully in Salzburg next season. Despite Wöber’s departure, I can hardly understand this termination of the loan, since you get a LV as an IV replacement. It could have been solved internally, there are still many IVs in Liefering
Forson was brought back because the departure of Diarra freed up a spot in the RBS squad. Don’t underestimate him, I think he’ll get his playing times.
Guidino is not intended for a regular position in the spring season, but as a backup for Ulmer and to build him up as his successor. Wöber previously held this position, now he’s leaving – that’s why this loan termination is the logical consequence. Why would Guidino come as an IV replacement? Wöber lost his place in IV to Pavlovic this fall and was only used as a backup for Ulmer as LV. So an LV was filled internally and the whole thing has nothing to do with the IV. For this reason, the return clause is also anchored in the loan agreements. Is forward-looking squad planning.
