He’s young and the Hoppers need the money: will GC lose their midfield jewel?

Saving and more “Swissness”: this is how GC wants to face the future. A young homegrown player like Dion Kacuri (19) actually fits perfectly into the strategy. But the question is: are the Hoppers planning the U19 international at all?

Kacuri has been a great promise in midfield for years. Last September, after a strong performance in the side underby against Winterthur, he scored his first Super League goal before breaking a foot in training a week later and missing the rest of the preliminary round.

Despite the long break from injury: The news about the talent of the Aargau native has also spread abroad. According to information from Blick, the Champions League round of 16 Bruges made an official offer for Kacuri last winter.

GC refused, did not want to give up his jewel (yet). But in the second half of the season that followed, Kacuri was only used sporadically under ex-coach Giorgio Contini. So there is no shortage of interested parties.

Kacuri, who has been wearing the league jersey since the U8 and has a contract until 2025, wants to start next season in the Super League. If he doesn’t get a prospect for that at the Hoppers, then a departure abroad is obvious.
