Marcel Hirscher once again left nothing to be desired in the current ski season: Austria’s ski ace has added another incredible level to his already perfect career with the seventh overall World Cup victory in a row and two Olympic gold medals this season.

Of course, a successful athlete wants to be rewarded appropriately for his achievements. Hirscher achieved his victories with the Raiffeisen logo on his helmet. A contract expiring in July. Now, a new deal is being worked out – according to Austria, Hirscher is currently bringing an annual allowance of one million euros to Austria.

“Both sides are interested in an extension”, Raiffeisen Marketing Director Leodegar Pruschak is quoted as saying:”Marcel knows what he has in store for us, and we know what we have in store for him. Like Hermann Maier. Negotiations with supplier Atomic are also pending.
