The latest episode in Embolo’s troubles comes to light just as he is about to make his Monaco comeback. And there is a break in the national team. The Basel attacker is more than ever the Swiss hope for the European Championship. «We need a fit Breel. He is indispensable,” says Murat Yakin.
The Nati coach visited Embolo in Monaco weeks ago and also suggested that he use the injury break to reconsider his surroundings and resolve private matters. “It’s about giving him more peace in his private life so that he can fully concentrate on football,” Yakin said in mid-March. He has known Embolo for a long time; in 2014, he helped him make his first-team debut as FCB coach.
Always busy catching up on the past
Embolo always makes headlines, even off the field. On March 30, 2017, he was sentenced by the Basel-Landschaft Public Prosecutor’s Office to a suspended fine of ten daily rates of 1,000 francs each. The main reason: violation of traffic rules. Due to similar violations, the probation period will be extended by one year in 2019. In June 2023, Embolo was found guilty by the Basel Criminal Court of multiple threats over an incident in May 2018 in Basel and sentenced to a suspended fine of 45 daily rates of 3,000 francs.
An incident in January 2021 caused a lot of commotion. Embolo is said to have been part of a party community at Baldeneysee in Essen that violated the Corona requirements. Police say Embolo fled across a roof to get to an adjacent apartment. The Nati star’s version: He was watching basketball with a friend. Embolo is fined by his club Gladbach.
And now the past is catching up with him again: According to the indictment that became public on Wednesday and to which Blick has access, Embolo’s name also appears. Three weeks after the party incident in Essen, he allegedly organized two false PCR test certificates from the suspect for the purpose of travel. Embolo himself has not been charged; he is presumed innocent.
The comeback is approaching
But there is also positive news from Embolo. After tearing his cruciate ligament, he is on the verge of making a comeback in Monaco. After returning to team training, he hopes to make his first partial appearances in April. Speaking to the Keystone-SDA news agency today, Embolo said: “In the last seven games in the championship it is about getting a good feeling and scoring a few goals if possible. That’s in my head.”
The national team needs him more than ever. The tests against Denmark (0:0) and Ireland (1:0) showed this. The European Championship is the big goal of the Basel native, born in Cameroon. He has many plans for the Nati, as he told Keystone-SDA. «There won’t be many opportunities anymore. It may even be the last of the current generation.” Embolo wants to make the sporting news again in Germany at the latest.
