With the restructuring, the change in philosophy, the young people at FC Zurich are gaining more confidence. Henriksen’s coaching change to the Bundesliga reinforces this even further. Because the Dane was never known as a great talent promoter.
The same first team often played under Henriksen and changes were rare. Also because the FCZ was initially in a relegation battle. But Henriksen also refrained from rotation in the preliminary round this season. Under the Dane, FCZ played the oldest of all Super League teams besides Servette and Yverdon, despite some talented youngsters.
Cards are shuffled again
They can now imagine new opportunities. One of them is the Junior League. The 18-year-old, sturdy striker has already played a few times after the winter break and has hinted at his potential several times. But the Ligue has never been in the first eleven. It is quite possible that he will be thrown into the deep end in the second half of the season. The Irishman Armstrong Oko-Flex (21) can also hope for a little more playing time than before.
“Youth investigations” at the FCZ. This is also reflected in the fact that at the beginning of this week the Zurich team gave defenders Selmin Hodza (20) and Ivan Kovacevic (19) long-term contracts (until 2028) and some talents were allowed to train with the professionals during the match. week.
Will there be young people joining us soon?
Hodza, right defender, and Kovacevic, central defender, both come from the FCZ Academy. And both are firmly planned for the professionals in the future. Hodza was deployed several times before the winter break. There is a good chance that at least one of the two will be in the selection on Sunday against Lucerne (4.30 p.m., in the Blick live ticker).
The older generation, on the other hand, may have a more difficult time. For the often unhappy attacker Ivan Santini (34), who has to leave this summer but has repeatedly seen substitutes under Henriksen, things could already become tight in the new coaching team around Murat Ural, Umberto Romano and supporter Milos Malenovic.
