News
Starts on Monday
Gregoritsch recorded one shot (zero on goal) in Monday's 2-0 defeat versus Argentina.
Analysis: Gregoritsch took the place of Sasa Kalajdzic and recorded his first World Cup appearance. Gregoritsch operated as a physical focal point up front and battled effectively against Argentina's defenders, winning five of seven aerial duels. He managed only one shot and was replaced by Carney Chukwuemeka in the 85th minute. Gregoritsch also had the responsibility of initiating the press when Argentina passed backwards to their center backs.
Signs permanently for Augsburg
Gregoritsch has been permanently signed by Augsburg after the club exercised their purchase option following his loan spell from Brondby, signing a contract until June 2027 with an option for a further year, the club announced.
Analysis: Gregoritsch contributed six goals and three assists across 17 Bundesliga appearances since returning to the club in January, taking his overall tally to 35 Bundesliga goals for Augsburg and leaving him just two shy of the club's all-time scoring record held by Alfred Finnbogason. Sporting director Benni Weber praised his leadership, professionalism and importance as a mentor figure for younger players, while Gregoritsch expressed his happiness at having his future resolved before the World Cup, describing his excitement at returning to Augsburg for the new season after the tournament with Austria.
