On June 27, GC wanted to launch the new season with a big kick-off event at the Sonnenberg restaurant in Zurich. Blick learned: The record champions have now canceled the reservation and postponed it by two weeks to July 11.
Are you at GC afraid of not being able to present the new coach at the end of June? This is not the reason for the postponement, the club reports on request, they need more time to properly present the new jerseys on this occasion.
It doesn’t matter why the event is postponed: it fits the unfortunate image that GC has been propagating for months. Two weeks before the scheduled start of training on June 19, the former flagship club has turned into a seemingly conceptless club that not only has no coach but also too few players.
Pusic with tears – Contini did not say goodbye
As disorganized as the new season begins, the old one ends on Whit Monday. After the 1:3 in Basel, players and staff meet on the campus in Niederhasli for the last barbecue. Fosun emissary and VR delegate Bill Pan said “a few words” to the team, one player tells Blick.
Meanwhile, trainer Giorgio Contini and his staff sat outside unsuspectingly. Pan didn’t seem to feel the need to have her around. At the closing dinner beforehand, Contini was not said hello or thanked for the two years. There would have been plenty of time to prepare for the farewell, as Contini handed in his resignation a few weeks ago.
Contini is not the only one disappointed with the manners in Niederhasli: Homegrown and crowd favorite Petar Pusic (24) is said to have had tears in his eyes in the dressing room on Monday as the standings come to an end after 12 years. Although the club writes on its website that talks are being held with Pusic, whose contract expires at the end of this month, the management of Pusic denies this. There is no offer and there are no talks, they say. Sports director Bernt Haas was not available for Blick.
GC: numerous departures – Schürpf and Kempter approaching
Goalie Moreira, Herc and Schettine (all without a contract from July) will also go on “vacation” without any certainty. When asked by a teammate if they would see each other again at the start of practice, Moreira said: “I don’t think so.” Before the last home game, Loosli, Margreitter and Nadjack, as well as Kawabe, Bolla and Hara received a farewell bouquet. Zig leaves, initially two new ones: Lucerne striker Pascal Schürpf (33) and St. Gallen defender Michael Kempter (28) are likely to join the standings.
In addition, Haas wants to present Contini’s successor in the coming days, according to people close to the club. If this does not work, you can fall back on Contini at the start of training on June 19, because his contract runs until August 31. According to information from Blick, his employer has not yet released him. “I’m doing my best for the standings and I’m loyal to the end,” Contini told FCB before the game.
