• An unexpected exit during the final stretch of the transfer window.
• His destination will be Austrian football, where he will have the chance to showcase his skills and accumulate important minutes.

After several days of rumors, it seemed increasingly likely that Ryan Mmaee was not in Steve Schumacher’s plans. The 26-year-old striker was expected to leave on loan to SK Rapid Vienna, and now, it has been officially confirmed.

Mmaee’s departure comes after making several positive contributions at Stoke City, leaving behind some great moments. There’s hope that he will return to the club in better form and provide the team with his scoring ability.

Ryan Mmaee’s Move to SK Rapid Vienna

Having accumulated 150 minutes over 4 matches this season, Mmaee made a positive impression on Stoke City fans. However, he struggled to secure a regular starting position, which eventually led to speculation about his departure. As a result, he will now move to Austrian football in search of more consistent playing time.

Since his arrival, Mmaee has played in 27 Championship matches, with a fairly positive record, although he didn’t fully adapt to the team. Now, he will continue his career at another club, where he hopes to reach his highest competitive level and contribute to the attack, something he did effectively at Stoke City.

City forward Ryan Mmaee has completed a season long loan move to SK Rapid Wien.

With a crowded squad, Steve Schumacher faces tough decisions about who will be regular starters and who will be on the bench. Unfortunately, this led to Mmaee’s exit, but there’s the possibility of a reunion between Stoke City and the player in 2025.

Sporting Director Jonathan Walters also commented on the move, saying that Mmaee will have a great opportunity to improve his game at Rapid Vienna and hopefully return to Stoke City stronger next year.
