Pajtim Kasami has to smile when asked if he has already settled in Basel. “Today I got lost on the way from the hotel to the stadium and it took me 20 instead of 7 minutes.” Everything is new. The city, the club, the teammates. “I’ve only been here two days and I haven’t even noticed.”
Kasami wants to become a teacher
What he knows: that in his opinion, Basel is the “biggest and best club” in Switzerland. That’s why you didn’t have to think twice when the request came in. “I had other offers,” reveals Kasami. “But I convinced the FCB more”.
The club and the midfielder have been flirting for years, now it’s the first kiss. And also for the happy ending? “I really want to become a teacher,” says Kasami. Because at the end of a career, the number of titles counts. So far, two Greek championships with Olympiacos and a victory in the Greek cup are on his business card. “We have a team that we can play for the title,” says Kasami. He himself could be the key to success.
Its strong points? “The overview, the intelligence of the game and the power,” says Kasami. “I can hurt the opponent, but also myself, the main thing is that the ball is still round in the end.” You can combine both. The toughness and the fine.
One of your role models? FCB legend Matias Delgado. “I loved him. How he controlled the ball, how he played,” enthuses Kasami. He himself is a similar type of player in terms of position. The two have been in regular contact for two years. “We exchanged ideas at the Swiss Indoors and I he asked in Spanish when he would finally come to the FCB “.
He is not yet at the zenith of his career
Two years later the time has come. Kasami wears red-blue. And he feels fit despite the competition’s bye week. He trained with my personal fitness trainer, says Andelfingen man ZH. However, the 28-year-old does not see himself at the zenith of his career. “I will soon be in my prime, but I am still young and have yet to develop.”
Sounds like a threat to the other clubs in the Super League.
