Cracovia has started the transfer window by signing Dominik Baumgartner. The Austrian defender has experience in the Bundesliga and is the older brother of Christoph Baumgartner, one of the leaders of the Austrian national team. Baumgartner signed a contract until June 2028 and joined Cracovia as a free agent after his contract with his previous club expired. The 28-year-old has played in the Austrian Bundesliga and in the youth national teams of Austria. During the last seasons, he regularly played at the highest level in his country for Wolfsberger. In total, he played 216 games for the club, scoring 16 goals and making 9 assists. He even held the role of team captain in his former club. Therefore, a player with significant experience is joining Cracovia. Cracovia is in the middle of celebrating its 120th anniversary. In recent days, there has been a lot of noise around the team due to numerous events organized for the jubilee of the oldest sports club in Poland. The transfer of Dominik Baumgartner opens the summer transfer window at Kałuży. It is likely that there will be more personnel changes in the coming weeks, as Cracovia wants to prepare its team for the new season. According to the Weszło editorial team, the main transfer goal is to find a goal-scoring striker. Cracovia wants to part ways with the disappointing Jean Batoum, and Gabriel Charpentier's contract will not be extended. The search is ongoing, and Cracovia wants to finalize several transfers before the training camp in Austria. The name Baumgartner is well-known to fans who follow European football. Dominik is indeed the older brother of Christoph Baumgartner, one of the leaders of the Austrian national team and a player for RB Leipzig. The midfielder was supposed to be one of the biggest stars of his team during the ongoing World Cup, but ultimately missed the tournament due to injury. The family's football connections do not end there. Dominik's cousin is also Stefan Feiertag, a striker for Wieczysta Kraków. The two will likely engage in a family battle during one of the many Krakow derbies this season. Cracovia is preparing for the new season and wants to strengthen its team. The transfer of Baumgartner is the first step in this direction.
