Club career
editSteininger came to SpVgg Greuther Fürth in 2010 after having played for DJK Sonnen, Sturm Hauzenberg, 1. FC Passau and SpVgg Grün-Weiß Deggendorf as a youth player. He started at the clubs youth team, before in 2013 - although still eligible to play for the A-Jugend team - he was promoted into the second team that played in the Regionalliga Bayern. After good performances, he began training with the first team from January 2014. Shortly afterwards he signed his first professional contract until 2018.[4]
In the summer of 2014, Steininger was loaned out to 3. Liga club SSV Jahn Regensburg until the end of the 2014–15 season in order to develop further and to gain match practice.[5] Steininger made his professional debut for Regensburg on 2 August 2014 in a 3. Liga match against Stuttgarter Kickers.[6] Regensburg lost the match 1–3. 25 more games followed, in which he was able to score five goals.
After his return, the attacker played mainly for the Regionalliga team, but was also used occasionally in the 2. Bundesliga. After a meniscus injury sustained in preparation for the 2019–20 season, Steininger, who had recovered, was active as a test player in friendly matches during the winter break in the training camp of 3. Liga club 1. FC Magdeburg. Steininger was then signed up and received a contract valid until June 2021.[7]
