Patrick Farkas

On 23 December, it was reported that Farkas had suffered a stroke in training on 21 October. In a video posted to the club's social media channels, Farkas said that he collapsed due to a hole in his heart caused the stroke when a blood clot shot to his brain. He did not require surgery to close the hole and returned to training in late December with the goal of re-joining Salzburg's match-day squads by early 2020.

Following a lengthy time on the sidelines with a cruciate ligament injury, Farkas returned to the squad for the final of the 2018–19 Austrian Cup on 1 May 2019. He scored the opening goal before Moanes Dabour headed in minutes later to make it 2–0. Farkas was dismissed early in the second half for a second yellow card, but Sazlburg held on for the win and lifted the trophy to secure a domestic double.

On 19 July 2019, Farkas made his season debut in a match against Parndorf in the first round of the 2019–20 Austrian Cup; he scored two goals as Salzburg ran out 7–1 winners over the fourth division side.

Farkas made his debut appearance in the UEFA Champions League proper with a substitute appearance against Genk on 17 September; a match that Salzburg won 6–2.

After spending the entirety of his career with SV Mattersburg since his debut in 2009, Farkas joined Austrian giants Red Bull Salzburg in the summer of 2017 and signed a three-year contract.

Patrick Farkas (born 9 September 1992) is an Austrian footballer who plays for Red Bull Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga.
