Teammate Xaver Schlager is also a part of the program in which Orban donates some of his salary to. The defender commented:
"With the 'Team Up For Ukraine' initiative, we want to make a small contribution and make the best possible use of the integrative power of football to strengthen social cohesion in Europe."
Adding, "It should therefore go without saying that they should be helped to move to neighboring European countries such as Poland, Hungary or Romania, or build a new life here in Germany."
