Zeki Amdouni? Andi Zeqiri? No! FC Basel’s top scorer is Darian Males. With ten goals and twelve assists, the 21-year-old leads the internal ranking. It’s actually a rhetorical question if red-blue want to keep their best offensive iron after the season.
But according to various media reports, Central Switzerland’s time at FCB should end in the summer. Real? Will the club let its top scorer go just like that?
Degen talks about “fake news”
Alongside Fabian Frei, Taulant Xhaka and Kaly Sène, Males is one of four professionals who wore the red and blue jersey before David Degen took over the club two years ago. The left foot has been on loan from Inter Milan since the beginning of 2021 and has been used regularly by all coaches (Patrick Framework, Guillermo Abascal, Alex Frei and Heiko Vogel) since then. In this season he made the final breakthrough. How important Males has become for FCB was recently shown in the second leg of the Conference League quarter-finals in Nice: after being substituted, he boosted the offensive and provided the assist with an exemplary cross to the 2-1 winner from Kasim Adams. .
According to information from Blick, Male’s future is anything but a foregone conclusion. This is consistent with the statements of Degen, who called the messages “fake news” in the “Blue” interview. And sports director and interim coach Heiko Vogel responded smugly to the reports: “Someone knows more than we do.”
Rental is also an option
If there is an opportunity to keep males, FCB wants to use it. The almost three million francs that Rood-Blauw would have to transfer to Milan at the end of the season for a final takeover is still too much at the moment. The focus of the talks is elsewhere: either negotiating the purchase price down. Or rent Males, who still has a contract with Inter until 2025, for at least another twelve months.
A final decision must be taken by the end of May at the latest. Until then, FC Basel wants to fight for its top scorer.
