Alexander Schöpf, born on 7 February 1994 (age 32), is an Austrian central midfielder with LASK, where he wears the number 18 shirt. He is not a player who needs dressing up: an experienced first-team midfielder, generally used through the middle, with international miles behind him.
His most productive league season came at Nuremberg in 2015-16, when he scored six goals in 19 appearances. That remains the clearest attacking return of his club career, and a useful reminder that there has been more to his game than tidy circulation and covering ground.
In 2026-27, Schöpf has made one Bundesliga appearance for LASK. He has also remained involved with Austria, making three appearances in European World Cup qualifying this season.
Schöpf’s career has been built around steady midfield work at club level and continued recognition with Austria. At LASK, he is now an experienced option rather than a developing project.
