Uly got the start, and St Polten went up 1-0, but he came off in the 60th minute right between two quick goals for Lafnitz that are screwing up their prospects of being in first place.
Uly starts today, as they try to extend their one point lead at the top of the table. Yannick Scheidigger on the bench.
The club is negotiating to keep him longer: https://www.kicker.de/schlaudraff-wir-wollen-aufsteigen-957608/artikel Ulysses Llanez would have liked to have borrowed the Lower Austrians from VfL Wolfsburg for longer, talks are ongoing.
Seems to be in limbo right now. Ulysses Llanez's future remains unknown. There has been no move towards a loan back to SKN St. Poelten despite past interest. Llanez is not yet back at Wolfsburg due to an elbow injury suffered in a car accident. #USMNThttps://t.co/aFe965knz0— Larry Henry Jr (@lhenry019) July 14, 2023
This says (through a translation feature): Offensive man Ulysses Llanez, who was on loan from Wolfsburg for the last two seasons, is permanently gone. His contract in Germany expires next summer, so another loan is not possible. SKN would have liked to sign the Mexican on a permanent basis, but Llanez avoided making a clear commitment. Wawra therefore says: "If a player does not identify one hundred per cent with our way, then he should go somewhere else." https://www.laola1.at/de/red/fussball/2--liga/news/ried-spielmacher-stefan-nutz-wechselt-wohl-zu-2--liga-konkurrent/
Wolves don't have a II team that plays in the RL/2 Liga pyramid and he declined a return to St. Polten last summer, so he's still under contract at Wolfsburg. FWIW Transfermarkt have him down as being in their squad. They also list him as still having that elbow injury - with his contract up in 6 weeks
Legit or not, the fact that - one year on - they list him as still having the elbow injury he picked up is telling IMO. Either he still has that injury, in which case his future as a pro is in play, or Wolfsburg gave up on him for some reason and Transfermarkt's sources stopped got the messagfe and stopped filing updates We'll know in a few weeks
Not sounding good: “However, the SKN loan deal did not go smoothly. Llanez is said to have returned late from vacation on several occasions, with ‘accidents’ repeatedly cited as the reason. In addition, the US boy regularly dragged himself around with too much weight.”https://t.co/yI8Cs4yAzM— Daniel (@DanielSmith1022) June 26, 2024 He is still part of the Wolfsburg squad. Both in the kicker app and on the VfL homepage. However, there was not enough space for a photo of Ulysses Llanez on the official club website; a wolf is shown as a placeholder. And the 23-year-old was not given a shirt number either. Nevertheless, he is still right in the middle of a row with Maximilian Arnold, Lovro Majer and co. The contract of the American, who has been quiet in recent years, ends at the end of this week.
My opinion? Go sign for AV Alta FC in USL League One. Kleiban is the coach... My guess is that he'd take him. Although, Uly dumped his brother as an agent.
