Alexander Prass (born 26 May 2001) is an Austrian professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder or left wing-back for Austrian Bundesliga club Sturm Graz and the Austria national team.[1]

Club career[edit]

Born in Hellmonsödt, Upper Austria, Prass began his career as a youth player at LASK.[2] Between 2009 and 2010 he played at FC Pasching before returning to LASK. For the 2012–13 season he moved to the youth team of Red Bull Salzburg, where he would later also play in the academy.

In March 2019 he was named for the first time in the matchday squad of Salzburg feeder team FC Liefering for a game against SK Vorwärts Steyr, but did not come on. He made his debut for Liefering in the second flight in the same month when he came on as an 87th minute substitute for Karim Adeyemi against FK Austria Wien II. In two and a half years with Liefering, he made a total of 59 second division appearances, in which he scored twelve goals.

For the 2021–22 season he moved to Bundesliga club SK Sturm Graz, where he received a contract until June 2024, extending this for a year in July 2022 to keep him at the club until the end of the 2024–25 season.[3]

National team[edit]

Prass made his debut for the Austrian U-18 team on 9 October 2018 against Switzerland. He scored his first goal against the same opposition in another international two days later. He made his debut for the U-19 team against Wales in October 2019.

Prass played for the U-21 team for the first time against Saudi Arabia in 2021.

In November 2022, the winger was called up for the senior national team for the first time, making his senior national team debut against Andorra.
