head of sports, Thomas Bickel (56) is stripped of power at FCZ. Even if President Ancillo Canepa formulated this differently. Canepa to VIEW: "Thomy has done in the past few years, very good work. Now it's time for us to do so, even organizationally, the next step to make. We want to make use of its experience and expertise in the areas of roster planning and Scouting even more intense and more efficient. We are in the conversation and I hope that we can resolve the remaining questions of detail soon."
Bickel himself does not want to speak to the new job profile. It is clear that he is after four years as FCZ-sports-in-chief of the new distribution of roles moderately excited. According to the VIEW information Bickel was initially charged this week with a fait accompli. He still has not decided whether he will accept the FCZ offer.
That his successor as head of sports, of all things, the former under-21 coach Marinko Jurendic (42), which is still an absolute Greenhorn, makes things easier. In addition, Jurendic will rise at the same time with his new office in the management of the club. So where Bickel was never.
trend therefore: Bickel throws at the end of the season.
Bickel's record as head of sports, is traversedBut why Bickel was ousted, anyway? To VIEW information, there was no internal trouble. But, apparently, Bickel's a quiet, thoughtful way should not have been always and everywhere viewed as advantageous. Especially, if, in the hectic transfer business quick action was in demand.
An open secret is that Bickel and coach Ludovic Magnin is not of the opinion one at a time. An example, after a defeat in 2019, in Sion: The head of sports, criticized at the time, the mentality of the team, Magnin remained. Both stressed, however, that frictions include, if performance sport is operated.
Bickel's record as head of sports, is attracted by. In his tenure of the climb, a Cup race victory, a strong Europa League campaign and the million-sales of Raphael Dwamena, Steven Odey and Michael Frey fall. But also Flops such as Assan Ceesay, Denis Popovic, or for a year of unresolved left-back site. Quite a free Hand Bickel had, however, never The last word on Transfers Canepa has. This says: "We at the FCZ work primarily as a Team. This will remain so in the future."
Three departments are to be led out of a Hand,Canepa Bickel no longer believed obvious that the management of sports leadership. The office of the sports heads to the restructuring of the organizational chart describes Canepa: "The three departments of professional, Junior and FCZ women should be from a Hand held. This concerns not only football topics, but increasingly also governance issues in football, the longer the more complex."
No Job, the FCZ Bickel give wanted. But head of sports, a newcomer to the Jurendic, a representative of the modern Laptop-Trainer-Generation, highly-structured way of working. The climb from the moderately successful under-21 coach (intersections: 1,09 in 47 games) to the new strong man at the FCZ is impressive and almost surprising as Bickel's degradation. Whether Jurendic is to meet the high requirements, it will show.
