Now Michael Pfeifer of Germany's Kicker Magazine reports that the 27-year-old and the TSG have worked it out. After a disappointing year in the Erdevisie, the Austrian international has agreed to a new three-year-deal that will surely see the player's pay cut significantly. In a long article appearing on Kicker's website, Pfeifer speculates that Grillitsch wishes to return to his old stomping grounds - which he didn't exactly depart amicably - in order to earn more playing time ahead of next summer's Euros and revitalize his career.
