“We have always said that we want to develop the club forwards,” said Blau-Weiss CEO Sargon Mikhaeel at today’s press conference to introduce Christoph Peschek as the new managing director of the second division football club.
Neo-CEO Philipp Kaufmann went even further: “You can only grow with the best minds and the best infrastructure. With Christoph we have the best mind in Europe. Other addresses would probably have been more logical for him. I’m glad we have the best could get out for our fans and the club.”
Peschek himself, who, after his end as managing director of record champions Rapid Vienna in Linz, is also opening a new chapter in terms of space and introduced himself to the fighting team yesterday before his first media appointment, is full of energy: “The development of Blau-Weiss Linz in the recent years is remarkable. But intense months await.”

First subscription offers in March
There are important decisions to be made. Regardless of whether this concerns the future of sports director Tino Wawra, whose contract expires in the summer and with whom talks are to be held soon, or the marketing of the new Donaupark stadium: the first subscription offers are to be made public in March. Of course, the club has to plan in two ways because it is not yet known in which league Linz will play next season.
BW board member Sargon Mickhaeel reassured: “We want to achieve promotion to the Bundesliga by 2024. We have calculated the budget for this year in such a way that we can attack even if we don’t get promoted in the coming season.”
Members’ association: “Identity must be preserved”
Peschek also spoke directly to the fans during his presentation today. When asked about the member club, which was often discussed recently, he said: “I am a friend of the “50+1” rule. The identity and safeguarding of the club’s values must always be preserved. When it comes to managing operations, professionals have to do it.”
