Club career

edit

After nearly two seasons as Unterhaching's first choice goalkeeper, Mantl completed a move to Austrian Bundesliga side Red Bull Salzburg in January 2021, signing a four-and-a-half-year deal.[2] At the end of December 2022, Mantl signed loan deal for the rest of the season with Danish Superliga club AaB.[3]

Mantl returned to Salzburg ahead of the 2023-24 season, sitting on the bench for a number of games in his first six months back at the club, while also getting a full game in the league against FC Blau-Weiß Linz in September 2023. In search of more playing time, Mantl returned to Denmark in January 2024; this time to Viborg FF, where Mantl signed a loan deal until the end of the season.[4]

On 19 June 2024, it was announced that Mantl would join Portuguese side Arouca on a permanent deal on 1 July.[5]
