1/5
Zan Celar hits and hits.

Lugano’s goalkeeper is called Zan Celar (24). He has already scored 13 goals this season, all in the Super League. He is responsible for a third of Ticino’s goals. Only YB forwards Cedric Itten and Jean-Pierre Nsame are ahead of him in the score list. Both have a target more on the bill.

Celar ultimately wants to be on top. “Yes, I’m fighting for the top scorer’s crown. I’m not denying that,” he tells Blick. But he’s working first and foremost to make sure the team wins. “That’s my true goal.” the competition continues, today Celar will meet Servette with Lugano in the semifinals of the cup The Slovenian has not yet scored a goal in this competition.

Parallels with last year

It was similar on this point last year, when Lugano finally emerged as cup winners for the first time in nearly thirty years. En route to the semi-finals, Celar scored just once. Then he shifted up a few gears. He scored twice against Lucerne and pocketed the decisive ball in the penalty shoot-out. In the final against St. Gallen, he paved the way to the historic victory with his header. The Bianconeri are hoping for something similar from him this year.

More than ever, Mattia Croci-Torti’s team depends on their “Bomber”. Because at the moment things are not going the way she would like due to many injuries. The last nine games yielded only one win. But that’s not worth mentioning anymore, Celar says confidently. “The last results have been ticked off and are a thing of the past.”

How long is a «Bianconero» still?

The focus is entirely on the semi-finals of the cup. “We are ready and going into this game with a positive attitude,” said Celar. By reaching the final, the team wants to give something back to the city and the fans. “It would be very useful for everyone to be in the final again.”

How long Celar, whose childhood idol was Zlatan Ibrahimovic, will continue to chase goals for Lugano is an open question. His contract runs until 2025. However, he recently changed consultancies, which is usually an indication of an imminent change. “I have big goals in mind. At the moment I’m not thinking about a transfer abroad or even next season’, he puts it in perspective.
