Bernese muscles: FCB top scorer Reuen switches to YB

class=”sc-29f61514-0 fQbOYE”>

Those were the days when FCB was the benchmark of everything in Swiss football. And got almost any Super League player he wanted. But now the wind has shifted enormously. YB is by far the most attractive club in the Super League. Because the Berners have a very good chance to play in the Champions League next season. Because they are financially strong, even without the revenue from the honey pot. And because the chance for a player to win the title is nowhere greater than in the capital.

Arguments that last year’s FCB top scorer, Darian Males, couldn’t say no to. According to information from Blick, the national team U21 player moves to Wankdorf and signs a multi-year contract in the capital.

In Basel they played poker at Males

The Basler, on the other hand, looks into the tube. And not entirely flawless. In May, the Bebbi would have had a chance to even Males. But those responsible refrained from drawing the option (two to three million francs), played poker and also lacked the necessary appreciation for their own top scorer.

It is also heard from the area of ​​Rood-Blauw that people from the sporting leadership were also skeptical about a commitment from the Gentlemen. And that despite the fact that the Central Swiss was involved in 46 goals in 106 games and brought FCB to the European Cup with his two assists in the last game against GC. Instead of choosing the men’s option, the Baslers opted for two new attacking players from the Belgian and Spanish second division: Thierno Barry and Jonathan Dubasin.

Males decide for YB – and against abroad

New coach Timo Schultz would have liked to keep Males, but now the East Frisian has to adapt to the left foot as an opponent. The YB tractors Christoph Spycher, Steve von Bergen, Stéphane Chapuisat and Raphael Wicky are said to have worked hard and convinced Males to move to Wankdorf. What is striking: Although the Bernese Males have been on the list for a long time, the transfer only started after the U21 European Championship.

Males may also have gone abroad. Several Bundesliga clubs were interested, including VfB Stuttgart, who observed him at the U21 European Championship in the person of sports director Christian Gentner. There was also interest in Males from Serie A, who still had a contract with Inter Milan until 2025.

But the 22-year-old decided to stay in Switzerland. Because he is still young. And maybe reach for the Champions League stars soon.
