Louis Schaub (German pronunciation: [ˈluːi ˈʃaʊ̯p]; born 29 December 1994) is a professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Austrian Football Bundesliga club Rapid Wien. Born in Germany, he plays for the Austria national team.

He was selected by influential football website IBWM in their list of the 100 most exciting players in world football for 2014.

Club career

Schaub made his debut for Rapid Wien's senior team in the 3–0 Austrian Football Bundesliga win over Sturm Graz on 18 August 2012. On 4 August 2015, Schaub scored two goals, including the winning goal in an unexpected 3–2 victory for Rapid Wien against Ajax Amsterdam in the UEFA Champions League qualifier.

Having played for 1. FC Köln since 2018, Schaub was loaned to Swiss side Luzern for the 2020–21 season. He joined Hannover 96 on a free transfer in July 2022.

Schaub returned to Rapid Wien at the start of the 2024–25 season.

International career

Schaub has been capped at four different age groups for Austria. He made his debut for Austria U21 in a 2015 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship qualification Group 4 1–0 win over Albania U21 on 14 August 2013, coming on as a 76th-minute substitute.

Schaub was named in Austria's senior squad for a 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Wales in September 2016.

Personal life

Schaub was born into a mixed German-Austrian family. His mother is Austrian and his father German, making him eligible to represent either nation internationally. His father, Fred Schaub, was a professional football player as well, having spent most of his career in the German Bundesliga. Fred Schaub died in April 2003 in a car accident; Louis was in the car and survived the accident. His younger sister Chiara also plays football and has represented Austria at youth level.
