Alexis Tibidi has signed with Portuguese second-division side FC Vizela after spending over a year without a club following his departure from LASK, according to sports outlet Laola1. The 22-year-old French forward joins a Vizela squad currently sitting in fourth place in the Liga Portugal 2 table.
Vizela Secures Free Agent Tibidi in Liga Portugal 2
The arrival in Portugal offers Tibidi a fresh start after a protracted period on the sidelines. His prior stint with LASK in the Austrian ADMIRAL Bundesliga during the 2024/25 season yielded just eight senior league appearances, alongside eight outings for the club’s reserve side in the Regionalliga Mitte. Before that Austrian top-flight chapter, the attacker enjoyed a more productive loan spell with SCR Altach, netting five goals and contributing one assist across 18 matches in Vorarlberg.
Failed Moves and Previous Transfers Shape Career Trajectory
Tibidi’s career path has featured several sharp turns since his development years. His strong form in Altach prompted VfB Stuttgart to recall him early in the winter of 2023 before transferring him to French club Troyes for a reported 2.6 million euros. Last summer, a potential transfer to reunite with former coach Miroslav Klose at 1. FC Nürnberg collapsed at the final hurdle due to recurring fitness problems, ultimately paving the way for his extended period as a free agent prior to signing with Vizela.
FC Vizela Chases Promotion from Fourth Place
