“SV Ried is on Gurten’s goalkeeper Felix Wimmer,” was the headline of the OÖN on April 26th. Now, two weeks later, the transfer is finalized. Felix Wimmer (25) signed a contract until 2026 with the second division club, whose goal is to return to the Bundesliga next season. “Felix Wimmer is the best goalkeeper in the region and a true Innviertel native. He was therefore our clear dream solution as a replacement for Jonas Wendlinger,” says Wolfgang Fiala, Sports Director of SV Guntamatic Ried. As reported, Wendlinger is leaving the club in the summer. “Thanks to his attitude and good work in Gurten, Wimmer has developed into an absolute top performer. He has a great personality,” says Fiala.
