Exceptional talent, child prodigy, gem. Many such descriptions came to Romano Schmid’s ears as a young boy in his hometown of Graz. Not only in the Sturm youth team, where he tore his boots at the age of nine. But also on the SMS Graz-Bruckner schoolyard. One of his mentors is no stranger to Austria…
Someone who has been looking at the career of the national team with hope since his youth is a legend in Austrian football: Günther Neukirchner. Sturms player of the century, honorary captain and current development coach on Christian Ilzer’s staff, is a teacher (maths, sports) for a living – and had the very young Romano under his wing at school.
