Captain’s evening
As captain of the women’s national team, Lia Wälti is not only Granit Xhaka’s counterpart – like the Leverkusen star, the Arsenal player was also named “National Player of the Year 2023”. At the presentation of the award, the Bernese woman revealed: “My childhood idol was Zinedine Zidane. Because the profession of professional football did not even exist at the time. Only later did Lara Dickenmann become my role model.”
YB rocket takes off
Elia, Nsamé or Bédia? All three nominees for the 2023 Super League Player of the Year were strikers. The YB rocket Meschack Elia had the upper hand. Because he is present at the African Cup of Nations with Congo, he was unable to receive the trophy in person. YB colleague Nsamé should save it for him until Elia returns.
Amdouni frustration
Fabian Rieder will be the best Nati youngster of 2023, much to the dismay of Zeki Amdouni. He was also nominated. And unlike Rieder (two short appearances), he was on the field in all of A-Nati’s European Championship qualifiers – and was the internal top scorer with six goals. The Burnley professional commented on Instagram about having to favor Rieder with two clown emojis. Let’s put it this way: the frustration is understandable.
Even more winners
The best national team talent among women is Smilla Vallotto. The best Challenge League professional of 2023 is FC Thun’s Daniel Dos Santos. The best player in the Women’s Super League is Seraina Piubel of FCZ.
