Andreas Weimann (born 5 August 1991) is an Austrian professional footballer who plays as a forward or attacking midfielder for West Bromwich Albion, on loan from Bristol City.

He was signed by Aston Villa as a sixteen-year-old from Rapid Vienna and went on to make 129 total appearances and score 24 goals for the Premier League club.

Weimann represented the club during the 2009 Peace Cup against Juventus, Atlante and Porto.

He was an important figure in Aston Villa's Reserves, particularly in the 2009–10 season filling the void left by Nathan Delfouneso where he finished the season as the Reserve South League's top scorer with nine goals.

On 8 May 2010, Weimann was named in the provisional squad for the final match of the season against Blackburn Rovers after impressing manager Martin O'Neill during the Reserve Play-off Final against Manchester United.

However, he was not among the final 18 players selected.

Days later, he was part of the Aston Villa team that won the Hong Kong Soccer Sevens tournament.

He scored a hat-trick against the Yau Yee League Select of Hong Kong.

He then made his league debut against Crystal Palace at home on 1 February, scoring in the tenth minute of the 1–1 draw at Vicarage Road.

He continued to play for Aston Villa's reserve side during his loan spell as he was only signed on a youth loan.

He played 19 times in total for Watford, scoring 4 goals.

Weimann returned to Aston Villa and made his first appearance of the 2011–12 season on 23 August 2011 in the second round of the League Cup in a home tie against Hereford United.

He came on as a second-half substitute for Darren Bent as Villa progressed to the next stage of the competition, courtesy of a 2–0 win.

Weimann made his senior international debut for Austria in 2012, and has earned over 20 caps.

Born in Vienna, Weimann began his career at hometown club FC Stadlau before joining Rapid Wien as a thirteen-year-old.

He remained there for three years, before being signed by Premier League club Aston Villa, joining the club alongside fellow Austrian Dominik Hofbauer.

He has since mentioned that he still supports Rapid.

Weimann then signed a contract extension which tied him to the club until June 2012.

But just hours after renewing his Aston Villa contract, Weimann returned to Watford in a second loan deal until January 2012.

He made three Championship appearances against Birmingham City, Reading and Barnsley, while on 23 September, he was recalled early due to injury concerns.

Following his return to the club, Weimann went straight in to the squad for the away game at Queens Park Rangers.

On 10 March 2012, having come on as a substitute for Charles N'Zogbia, Weimann scored his first goal for Villa in the 92nd minute, giving the team a 1–0 victory over Fulham at Villa Park.

The goal stemmed from Gary Gardner's shot, which was fumbled by Fulham goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer.

On 10 November 2012, Weimann scored two goals in a 3–2 home loss to Manchester United at Villa Park, and received a standing ovation when he was substituted.

On 11 December, he scored twice as Villa beat Norwich City 4–1, which saw them through to the semi-final of the League Cup.

Four days later, he scored Villa's second goal away at Liverpool after a combination with Christian Benteke, in a 3–1 win.
