Valentin Sulzbacher (born 11 March 2005) is an Austrian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Austrian Bundesliga club Red Bull Salzburg.
Sulzbacher is a youth product of Red Bull Salzburg, where he signed his first professional contract in July 2024, after having started his professional career with FC Liefering in the 2. Liga in April 2022.[1][2]
By the 2024–25 season, he had established himself as a starter with FC Liefering, but also with Red Bull Salzburg's youth team in the UEFA Youth League, captaining[3] the side that reached the semi-final of the competition.[4] He however missed this last game of the competition, having already been added to Red Bull Salzburg's senior team.[5][6]
