Guido Burgstaller is set to retire from professional football, marking the end of his career.

Guido Burgstaller, whose contract with Erstligist Rapid Wien ends in June, is offered a contract by Zweitligist First Vienna FC with the intention to help the club achieve promotion next year. Although he initially planned to end his career in the summer, he is considering extending his career by another year.

Guido Burgstaller has been the subject of media reports suggesting the end of his career following a violent attack that left him with severe injuries. Although his contract with Rapid Wien runs until the summer of 2025, it is unlikely he will play any more games for the club. Austrian media are expecting an announcement from Rapid Wien regarding his potential career end.
