Thomas Mandl (born February 7, 1979 in Eisenstadt) is an Austrian football goalkeeper, who currently plays for First Vienna in the Austrian Football First League.

Club career

He started his career at Austrian giants FK Austria Wien in 1997 where he broke into the first team in 2001. His good displays earned him a call up to the Austrian national team. He moved to Swiss League club FC Basel in 2004 but he failed to force his way into the team and was second choice behind Pascal Zuberbühler. In June 2005 he moved back on loan to Austria with VfB Admira Wacker Mödling and in autumn 2006 he had an unsuccessful trial at Vitesse in the Dutch Eredivisie.[1] In 2007 he signed for SK Schwadorf after a short spell in the Italian Serie C2 with Nuorese, in July 2008 moved to Trenkwalder Admira.

International career

He made his debut for Austria in a November 2002 friendly match against Norway and competed for the national jersey with Alex Manninger for 2 years. He earned 13 caps, no goals scored. His last international was an August 2004 friendly match against Germany.
