Christopher Giuliani Extends Contract with Vienna Until 2027
Goalkeeper Christopher Giuliani will remain loyal to First Vienna FC 1894. The 25-year-old has extended his contract, which was originally set to run until 2025, and has signed a new deal through the summer of 2027 with Austria's oldest football club.
The Graz native joined Vienna in the summer of 2023 from Kapfenberger SV. Since then, he has played in 20 league matches and two cup games for Vienna.
Before his move to Vienna, Giuliani gained extensive experience in the ADMIRAL 2. Liga. He has made over 50 appearances in the second division for both Kapfenberger SV and Sturm Graz II. In addition, he has played 64 games in the Regionalliga for Sturm Graz’s amateur team.
Giuliani began his football career in the youth ranks of GAK before making the jump to senior football through the academies of Admira and SK Sturm Graz. After his first move to Kapfenberg in 2020, he briefly returned to Sturm Graz in 2022. In early 2023, he moved back to Kapfenberg before joining Vienna in the summer of the same year. The move to Vienna marked his first step outside of Styria.
Giuliani has also been active on the international stage: He has made a total of 15 appearances for various Austrian youth national teams, including caps for the U17, U18, U19, U20, and one match for the U21 national team.
Sporting Director Andreas Ivanschitz Welcomes Long-Term Extension: "Giuli has integrated excellently with us from the very beginning, both on and off the pitch. He is a perfect fit for Vienna, and his professionalism, character, and experience make him an important part of our team. We are happy that he sees his future here at Vienna."
Giuliani Also Happy with His Decision: "I feel very comfortable at Vienna. The club has a great tradition and pursues ambitious goals, which convinced me from the start. The discussions with the management were again very positive, and I look forward to the coming years at Hohe Warte."
