Louis Schaub (German pronunciation: [ˈluːi ˈʃaʊ̯p];[1][2] born 29 December 1994) is a German-born Austrian footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for 2. Bundesliga side Hamburger SV, on loan from 1. FC Köln, and the Austrian national team.[3][4]

He was selected by influential football website IBWM in their list of the 100 most exciting players in world football for 2014.[5]

Career

Schaub made his debut for Rapid Wien's senior team in the 3–0 Austrian Football Bundesliga win over Sturm Graz on 18 August 2012.[6] On 4 August 2015, Schaub scored two goals, including the winning goal in an unexpected 3–2 victory for Rapid Wien against Ajax Amsterdam in the UEFA Champions League qualifier.[7]

International career

Schaub has been capped at four different age groups for Austria. He made his debut for Austria U21 in a 2015 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship qualification Group 4 1–0 win over Albania U21 on 14 August 2013, coming on as a 76th-minute substitute.[8]

Schaub was named in Austria's senior squad for a 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Wales in September 2016.[9]

Personal life

Schaub was born into a mixed German-Austrian family. His mother is Austrian[10] and his father German, making him eligible to represent either nation internationally. His father, Fred Schaub, was a professional football player as well, having spent most of his career in the German Bundesliga. Fred Schaub died in April 2003 in a car accident; Louis was in the car and survived the accident.[11][12] His younger sister Chiara also plays football and has represented Austria at youth level.[13]
