Market

Young Boys turn down Werder Bremen for Alvyn Sanches

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

Marvin Keller moves on

Racing Genk pay $7.9M, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Market

Young Boys sign Youssoufa Moukoko with one eye on the future

Nobody at the club will say out loud who this signing is for, which is how you know exactly who it is for. Youssoufa Moukoko has been brought in to take a shirt somebody is still wearing.

Squad

Tempers go at Young Boys

Samuel Essende was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets

Young Boys rebuffed over Julian Weigl

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Al-Qadisiyah have kept their man, and Young Boys go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

The dugout

Samuel Essende gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

The game went through Isaac Schmidt — 7.18

Marked 7.18 on 12 actions at both ends of the pitch. Midfielders like this get described as unspectacular by people who have never tried to play against one.

Match

Young Boys come up short against St. Gallen

St. Gallen left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Young Boys are still strangers to each other

10 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

In brief
