Joker gets going faster than expected: FCB returning Ajeti already feels the spring

Now it has been used for 30 minutes. Albian Ajeti (26) is already number one in FCB’s 2-0 win in Yverdon. Coach Fabio Celestini replaced the winter returner first in the 61st minute, along with Gauto.

On February 1, FCB was still too low. At the official presentation of Ajeti’s return campaign it was said: “He must carefully work towards the team’s current level of performance in the coming weeks – without pressure and with the aim of being back to his original level during the spring.”

During the spring? Already in his half hour in Yverdon, Ajeti comes very close to his first goal in his third chapter at FCB. At the edge of the penalty area he asserts himself physically and shoots his powerful shot just wide of the penalty area (68′). A week ago against the rankings (1:2) he played 17 minutes plus injury time.

Schmid can’t go fast enough – Celestini brakes

After the win in Yverdon, teammate and friend Schmid explains what Ajeti will bring back to FCB. “We have also seen in these thirty minutes that he is extremely important. He can hold the ball, he can smell where the dangers are lurking and I think he can help us a lot and I hope he can play more than 30 minutes as soon as possible.

For Ajeti it is the start of his third episode with FCB. The eleven-time Swiss international grew up in Basel, grew up at FCB and made the first team in 2015. A year later he moved to Augsburg in the Bundesliga, where he did not triumph and ended up back on the Rhine knee via St. Gallen in 2017. Ajeti did so well that he moved to West Ham two years later for 12 million francs. After rather unfortunate stops at Celtic, Sturm Graz and Gaziantepspor, he was now sucked back home.

Unlike Schmid, coach Celestini is still putting on the brakes: “20, 25 minutes or 90 minutes are a big difference. We know his qualities and must be patient. Ajeti currently has 20, 25 minutes left in the tank.” That restraint again. Woe to you if the wolf in sheep’s clothing strikes soon.
