Rapid Vienna in the Future with Bauer as Managing Director of Business

Daniela Bauer will take over the economic management at the football Bundesliga club SK Rapid starting September 1st. The Hütteldorf club announced this on Friday. The Lower Austrian follows the German Marcus Knipping, from whom the club parted ways in March. Bauer is considered to be very well connected in international sports; she currently leads the global partnership and sponsorship division at the insurance group Allianz SE.

Bauer Sees "Potential"

Previously, the former freestyle skier was responsible for the international marketing of the German Bundesliga at the DFL, among other roles. She is very much looking forward to returning "to my old and new home," the 39-year-old stated in a Rapid press release. "Rapid is not only a traditional club with great appeal but also a club with potential for further development. Together with the team, I want to contribute to sustainably strengthening the club's economic foundation."
