FCB’s crazy transfer summer went much better financially than expected, president David Degen (40) said in a major interview with the Basler Zeitung. “I expected an income of 40 million, but not 54 or 55,” he says.
The club boss had taken the sales of Amdouni, Diouf and Ndoye into account with the corresponding amounts. But it is less likely that Pelmard, Burger, Calafiori and Millar also wanted to leave and rake in millions more.
In terms of expenditure, Basel is around 30 million, but actually it would be slightly more: But despite progress, Lucerne did not give up its gem Ardon Jashari (20). At most he would be sold to YB, but not to Basel, it was said from Central Switzerland, and there was also criticism that Basel first discussed the deal with Jashari himself and he had no objection to it.
Degen explained the transfer activities to Meyer
It was the big mud fight of the Super League summer holidays. Degen has now spoken with FCL sports director Remo Meyer. The President of Basel is now publicly reporting the content of the conversation. He has it all.
Degen apparently criticized Meyer for saying agreements with FCL’s board of directors blocked the change in Jashari. “I advised him that he should not act rashly in his position and without consulting his board of directors.” Degen explains that he would have given Jashari the FCL record transfer with more than four million.
«You can’t just stop everything after a very short time! You need to go to the board of directors and tell them about it – and give them your opinion about it. Something like this needs to be decided at the highest level.”
“…he lives in a dream world”
Jashari still plays in Lucerne. Degen obviously finds this difficult to accept. He finds FCL’s accusation absurd that they first illegally spoke with Jashari about a possible transfer instead of with Luzern.
Degen: “But everyone does that! Anyone who says things normally work differently is living in a dream world or doesn’t know the business. The absolute majority of transfers happen like Jashari did. (…) You first have to know whether the player you are looking for is seriously interested.”
He then ends the topic of Jashari with a joke: “So if Remo Meyer wants to give me Jashari, he can call me (laughs).” It cannot be assumed that the statements in the BaZ interview will increase the FCL’s willingness to negotiate.
