FC Basel is currently in decline. Instead of playing for the Swiss championship, they are fighting against relegation in the Super League. Reason enough to talk about the reasons for the current crisis... and many of the stories are hard to believe because they shouldn't happen in a professionally run club. A big problem is the lack of a sporting concept. Within a few years there have been three sporting directors, all of whom had completely different ideas about the squad. Should FC Basel rely on its own talent, on players from South America or on loan players from top clubs? They tried everything, but nothing really worked. Another problem is the lack of continuity. Coaches like Raphael Wicky and Timo Schultz were not given the time they needed. In the end they were the pawns of the crises. This has left FC Basel with a financial hole that can no longer be filled. A few years ago they still had a lot of equity, but these reserves have now been completely used up. FC Basel is on the ground... enjoy the analysis of the current situation. ---- IMPORTANT: The jerseys worn in the videos do not reflect my sympathies.
