FK Austria Wien have signed Czech international Štepán Vachoušek on loan from Olympique de Marseille.

Fall from favour
The midfield player joined Marseille from SK Slavia Praha last summer but was unable to retain a place in the starting lineup after coach José Anigo was replaced by Alain Perrin in January. The 24-year-old was still selected in the Czech Republic's UEFA EURO 2004™ squad, though, and made one appearance, in the 2-1 win against Germany in the group stage.

European campaign
Austria finished second in the Austrian Bundesliga last season to qualify for the UEFA Cup. Last summer Vachoušek played against his new club when Marseille defeated Austria in the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round.
