Sasa Kalajdzic’s Wolves career has been filled with a lot of disappointments, and most of those are not down to the striker himself.
The Austrian has been extremely unlucky to pick up multiple ACL injuries while contracted to the Old Gold.
The injuries have unfortunately limited his career at the club, and he has been sent on numerous loan moves in order to get game time.
In the summer, the striker embarked on another temporary move, joining LASK in the Austrian Bundesliga.
The agreement included Wolves covering most of the striker’s salary.
Here is how Sasa Kalajdzic got on as he made his debut for the club.
Sasa Kalajdzic was promising off the bench for LASK
After only recently joining LASK, Sasa Kalajdzic was only deemed ready to have minutes off the bench for the club.
Sasa’s new club had gone down 1-0 in the 30th minute to Altach from a penalty, and in the 60th minute, he was brought on to try level the score.
The Austrian striker made himself a handful for the opposition and was dominant across his duels. He won eight out of eleven contested duels.

He had one shot, and created one chance, combining to create a total xG+A of 0.43 via FotMob, which was the highest of any LASK player despite playing just half an hour.
It was certainly a promising debut, and he’ll be hoping to build off that for their next match.
Austrian Bundesliga can be right level for Sasa Kalajdzic to turn career around
All Wolves fans will no doubt hope Sasa Kalajdzic can return to the form that made the club buy him in the first place.
While it has not worked out for both parties, due to unfortunate circumstances, there is still a lot of respect for the striker within the fan base.
Returning to the Austrian Bundesliga can provide him with a platform to turn things around, and the level might be perfect for him.
The player needs consistent minutes more than anything, and at LASK, he can do that at quite a high level still.
