Switzerland brutally strikes Jaken and Shaqiri: No with two citizenship players
(8 years ago)Switzerland's Football Federation with brutal proposals: due to the future gesture of eagles for the nationals, only those who give up their former country's citizenship will play. That's what Football Federation Secretary General Alex Myescher wants. After Switzerland's loss at eight o'clock of nale against Sweden in [...]
After Switzerland's loss at the eighth and eighth time against Sweden at the World Football Championship in Russia, debate over national future has erupted in Swiss opinion. Newspapers have criticised Granit Jaka and Gerdan Shaqiri for too weak playing in Russia.
In comments there is no mention of even the eagle gesture during the match with Serbia. In a comment it is said that Jaka and Shaqiri were probably precisely motivated to play only in facing Serbia. But the debate has cleared up Thursday night.
In an interview for the newspaper «Tags Anzeeger» Secretary General of the Swiss Football Federation Alex Meescher has proposed that for Switzerland's national in the future, they have no right to play footballers with two citizenships. Myescher has warned that he will be no match for Federation President Peter Gilliéron and coach Vladimir Petkov.
Meescher also said that the gesture with the eagle and events have shown there is a problem.
Maybe you should ask yourself: Do we want two national players? This question is actually an attack on Jaka and Shaqiri, and after the recent debates both may have to take a public stand: or insist on making an eagle, and if the Federation is against, resign from the team. Or accept the conditions and continue to play for Switzerland, but without an eagle and an amur of Kosovo and a national flag in shoes (as in Shaqiri's case).
Most citizenship is not prohibited in Switzerland. Myescher says the Federation can decide that in the future talented players will enable them to pursue soccer training in Switzerland only if they give up dual citizenship.
According to Meescher Switzerland, preparing foreign-born footballers is risking that they lose because they decide to play for the states of origin, and thus they are replaced by a Swiss talent. According to Meescher, it's very expensive places.
