Born in Güssing, Stranzl played for SV Güssing as a youth. In 1997, he earned a transfer to TSV 1860 Munich, where he completed his youth training and debuted as a Bundesliga professional. In 2004, following TSV's relegation, the defender joined first-division team VfB Stuttgart, where he remained a cornerstone.
