The Stade Lausanne-Ouchy Chronicle
The dugout24 Jul 2028
Luca Mazzeo keeps the receipts
“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Stade Lausanne-Ouchy may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.
Transfer targets24 Jul 2028
Mahamadou Kanouté is a medical away from Stade Lausanne-Ouchy
The deal with Yverdon is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Tempers go at Stade Lausanne-Ouchy
Evan Rossier 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.

5 academy graduates step up at Stade Lausanne-Ouchy
Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.
Transfer targets24 Jul 2028

Match22 Jul 2028
Wil take the points off Stade Lausanne-Ouchy
Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.
The dugout24 Jul 2028
Justin Lukas frozen out at Stade Lausanne-Ouchy
This is not rotation. Justin Lukas has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Stade Lausanne-Ouchy is pretending otherwise.

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Michel Gavranovic has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
