The Austrian international will join the Vienna team in a transfer that was originally scheduled to happen at the start of June - and despite reported late interest in his services from Bundesliga champions FC Salzburg. Austria Wien general manager Thomas Parits announced the completion of the deal on the club's website, saying: "It has been a long and arduous process but now the story has a happy ending for us." Kuljic, 29, will leave Switzerland after a solitary season in which he scored 12 goals in 22 top-flight games. He previously made his name at SV Ried with a haul of 64 goals from 92 league outings.
