Now the doors are coming: this is the new clipper YB Jordan Siebatcheu

Now the gates are coming – this is the new YB Jordan Siebatcheu clipper

It took a long time. But now the button seems to have been resolved with Jordan Siebatcheu. The “Nsame copy” (“look”) hits twice in the second consecutive game. And maybe it will help the youngsters with their decision, in case a lucrative offer comes through for top scorer Jean-Pierre Nsame.

Both goals from Berne in YB’s 2-2 win over Lugano on Saturday, both goals yesterday in a 2-1 away win in St. Gallen – Jordan Siebatcheu still managed to reach the Super League. The 24-year-old forward behaved like a bottle of ketchup: coach Gerardo Seoane threw the bottle in vain for 17 games, and in the 18th and 19th attempts the first successful experiences were finally experienced. Shortly before Christmas, Siebatcheu gave YB and himself a nice gift with the two double packs.

7 questions and answers about YB’s new star in the sky

Where is he from?

Siebatcheu is on loan from Stade Rennes. He had taken him out of Reims for a lot of money in the summer of 2018, according to the source, Alex Frei’s former club gave between 9 and 12 million euros for the jewel in the storm.

Thanks to his 17 goals this season, Reims were promoted to Ligue 1. But the 1.90m forward’s personal ascent came to a standstill in Rennes. First, a thigh injury took him off the track, then Corona and the end of the season in France. The plan is to relaunch a career at age 24 in Bern.

Why is “Pefok” on your shirt?

This is the first name of his mother, who thanks to this gesture never loses her son’s game. His own full name is Theoson-Jordan Siebatcheu. Players call him “Jordan” or “Jordy.”

How does the YB athletic director describe it?

Christoph Spycher was faced with the task of replacing elderly cult striker Guillaume Hoarau in the summer. Before the start of the season, he said about Siebatcheu in “Blick”:

Spycher knew that Hoarau’s successor would follow great strides. Therefore, he turned off expectations that were too high and emphasized:

What does top scorer Nsame have to do with his promotion?

Jean-Pierre Nsame scored 32 goals last season, making him the top scorer in the Super League. So one from whom you can learn. And that’s what Jordan Siebatcheu does. Actually, the two forwards are not only teammates, but also competitors, but according to Nsame this takes a back seat in everyday life:

After three championship titles with YB, the transfer of the 27-year-old Nsame to a bigger league appears to be only a matter of time. The hair clippers on duty said for the last time that he was not the type who wanted to change clubs in January. “Yet in this strange moment, you never know what tomorrow will be like.” During the short Christmas break, you will brainstorm with family and counselors to discuss the future.

YB hired Siebatcheu not only to replace Hoarau, but also to have a physically strong second striker alongside Nsame. Now that he’s also scoring goals, this may have an impact on YB’s attitude should a lucrative offer come to Nsame. The Bernese can earn a lot of money with the Cameroonian, his contract runs until 2023. With Siebatcheu, the Bernese is guaranteed that he will continue to have a tall attacker with a nose for goal in the squad.

When will we see him in a World Cup?

Take it, take it. Jordan Siebatcheu is French and it is quite difficult to rush out of the Super League and into the team of the current world champion. He was allowed to play twice in the French Under-21s and scored a goal. Players at the time included Nordi Mukiele (Leipzig), Abdou Diallo (PSG) and Moussa Dembélé (Lyon), and as a substitute Benjamin Pavard (Bayern Munich), who became world champion a year after that sub international match. -21 with the ‘greats’.

Despite the fierce competition at «Les Bleus», participation in the World Cup cannot be ruled out. Because Siebatcheu, whose family is originally from Cameroon, also has a US passport and was born in Washington. The US federation offered the striker for an international match in the summer of 2018, against France of all places. Siebatcheu declined the offer because the transfer to Rennes was in the final stretch. However, he stressed that this is not a general no. Who knows, maybe one day you’ll see the YB striker with Stars and Stripes.

How does it appear on Instagram?

Reticent. Since playing at YB, Siebatcheu has almost exclusively posted images of his work at Yellow-Black. During the holidays a visit was also given to Nusret Gökçe, the “Salt Bae”, who served Franck Ribéry the infamous golden steak:

How long will you stay in Bern?

First of all, until the end of the season, that’s how long YB Siebatcheu borrowed. But the Bernese have wisely secured a call option, reportedly worth 2.5 million Swiss francs. Not a bar of paper, especially in the days of Corona. And yet a bargain if the ‘Air Jordans’ rise continues. Especially since the purchase can possibly be settled with money from a Nsame sale.
