Rapid has found a replacement for centre-forward Fally Mayulu, who was sold to England: Croatian striker Dion Beljo is moving to Hütteldorf on loan with an option to buy.
The 22-year-old Beljo scored two goals for Augsburg last season – mostly as a substitute. In October 2023, the 1.95 m tall striker made his debut for the Croatian national team.
“I absolutely trust that he can develop into a goal-scoring player for us and, like our entire coaching team, I am looking forward to working with him,” explained Markus Katzer, Rapid’s sports director. Despite his age, Beljo is already experienced and perfectly complements Rapid’s attacking options.

In the past season, the former youth team player scored twelve goals and provided seven assists for the fourth-placed team.
