“Latte Lath said clearly that he absolutely wanted to stay in St.Gallen:” That was FC St.Gallen’s season record PK
Hope is alive: FC St.Gallen would like to keep their loan top scorer Emmanuel Latte Lath in eastern Switzerland. At the season balance sheet press conference, those responsible are dissatisfied with sixth place. But they want to remain undeterred on the path they have chosen.
They will remain at the helm at FCSG next season: (from left) Head of Sports Alain Sutter, Coach Peter Zeidler and President Matthias Hüppi.
The most exciting thing came at the end. At the press conference on the results of the season, sports director Alain Sutter was asked how high the chances are that FC St.Gallen will be able to keep Emmanuel Latte Lath. Sutter’s reply gives hope that Latte Lath, the top scorer on loan from Bergamo, will stay:
“He was in my office the day before the Sion match and said clearly that he absolutely wanted to stay in St.Gallen.”
According to Sutter, Atalanta Bergamo no longer plans with Latte Lath and wants to sell him. According to Sutter, the attacker’s clear declaration that he wants to stay in St.Gallen is the first and best basis for actually being able to hold him.
No public finger pointing
Neither President Matthias Hüppi nor Alain Sutter were satisfied with sixth place, which the Espen made clear on Whit Monday with a 4-0 win over Sion. “None of those responsible is,” said Sutter. On Tuesday morning there was already a discussion lasting several hours regarding the course of the season. Matthias Huppi:
“We are not a whitewashing association!”
However, according to the President of St.Gallen, there will be no public accusations of blame in St.Gallen, who also made it clear that the longer-term plans with Peter Zeidler and Alain Sutter will be continued.
Regarding information from our newspaper, according to which there are cracks in the relationship between Peter Zeidler and the team, Alain Sutter said: “We were a unit and are a unit.” Peter Zeidler agreed and mentioned that with such a large squad there are always dissatisfied players.
