YB striker Nsame is chasing Streller’s record and hopes for a new contract: Von Bergen: ‘He is a legend here’

Because YB has Jean-Pierre Nsame (30), you don’t actually notice that striker Cedric Itten (26) has been missing since the end of November due to an injury.

During the week, the Cameroonian was the match winner for YB with the only goal of the match against newly promoted Stade-Lausanne-Ouchy. Nsame improved against his favorite opponent St. Gallen (17 goals in 20 games) on Saturday evening: goals 108 and 109 in the Super League! The photographer is only two goals away from overtaking record holder and FCB icon Marco Streller.

“Enjoy every moment”

For Nsame, sober as he is, this record obviously doesn’t mean much. The 3-0 win in the top game is more important to him. “I’ve always said it and I’ll say it again: what matters to me is what happens with the team, everything else comes after that. We played a great match. The goals record is not in my head. I don’t work for myself, I work for the team.”

Phrases – the kind you hear often. You can buy them immediately. His two goals against St. Gallen are not only decisive, but also further arguments for a new contract. His current contract expires at the end of the season. Will there be an extension? Nsame grins: “You have to ask Von Bergen that. I just enjoy every moment and want to score as many goals as possible.”

There’s no hurry

Nsame, who has been in Bern since 2017 and is now a crowd favourite, will be celebrated by YB fans long after the match against St. Gallen. “The city, the fans – I love them.”

And what does boss Von Bergen, who played with Nsame when he was active, say about the photographer’s achievements and words? «Jean-Pierre is a legend here. He has enough arguments and has already won so much with YB. We will sit together and calmly discuss how we move forward.”
