He played for an hour as the match was drawn 3-3 with Lafnitz eventually going through after a penalty shoot-out.[8] He made his debut for Lafnitz in the Austrian 2. Liga on 3 August 2024, starting the game but earning a red card for two bookable offences in a 0-0 away draw against Austria Lustenau.[9]
