2021 with GC, 2022 with Winterthur: Shkelqim Demhasaj (27) is a promotion expert. With FC Aarau he now wants to live up to the achievement for the third time: “I associate this club with the Super League. There were other requests, for example from 1860 Munich. But Aarau is the most exciting job, so I quickly accepted it. Of course Alex Frei also played his part in the change, under him I rose a year ago with Winti. »
As much praise as the striker has for his new employer, the memories of his old one are just as ugly: The Grasshoppers.
Climbing hero at GC two years ago
In 2020, Demhasaj switched from FC Luzern to the Hoppers and shot the fallen record champion back into the Super League with eleven goals in the first season. After that, Giorgio Contini becomes a trainer on campus. And from now on, he is relinquishing the services of promotional hero Demhasaj. “To this day, Contini still owes me an explanation. In any case, I deserved to play more,” said the resident of Schaffhausen.
Despite being disregarded, he went full throttle every workout, never complained, never spread a bad mood. Even when GC Demhasaj announced in the summer of 2022 after returning from a six-month loan to Winterthur that he had to look for a new club. “After that they didn’t put me on the quota list for several months. And in the winter I was told to go again. But that was out of the question for me because there was no suitable offer on the table. And my inner voice told me to continue And that my moment will come someday.”
In fact, on April 25 this year, YB will be a guest at the Letzigrund. A victory over GC would prematurely clinch the championship title. But the Berners have counted without Demhasaj: he was in the starting eleven from scratch and almost single-handedly shot the Hoppers to a 4-1 victory with a goal and an assist.
Demhasaj settles with GC leadership
As a reward, Demhasaj can also play in the remaining six league matches. Three more scorer points are added. And then, according to Demhasaj, he first received excellent signals from GC that the contract might be extended after all. But what happened next, Demhasaj describes: “Brutal and unprofessional!”
Before going on vacation, he asked sports director Haas what it looked like. Without answer. “Then I texted over the holidays with the same question. Again no answer.” According to Demhasaj, Haas only reached out two days before the start of training and informed him that his time at GC had expired.
Demhasaj concludes: “That didn’t surprise me. And with Aarau at that point, everything was more or less clear. But again, this behavior is unprofessional. And a bit brutal towards a player who always gave everything, even if he never got a fair chance.”
