Moritz Wels's loan to WSG Tirol was arranged early, after the previous season concluded and in conjunction with an extension to his contract, which was originally set to expire in 2026. The move was initiated by Wels, who approached Austria Vienna to discuss his opportunities for more playing time, and the club was open to a loan. His decision for WSG Tirol was made quickly. A factor in his decision was coach Philipp Semlic, who had previously been Wels's teacher and briefly his academy coach. Following his performances, rumors have emerged about a possible termination of the loan in the winter. This topic could become more prominent due to an injury to Manprit Sarkaria. Wels expressed skepticism about an early return, stating that he is calm and that any move would need to be a suitable one that guarantees him playing time. He also confirmed he would have to listen if the club presented a plan. The final decision on an early return reportedly rests with the player. With the start of the next season, Wels will enter his final contract year and has attracted the interest of several clubs.
