Midseason transfers

[RobtheAggie]

Instead of each transfer getting its own thread, I thought that they could all be contained here, unless it involves a major player, ie Hakin, Senderos, etc.

UEFA.com is reporting that FC Zurich's striker Kanga Akale has been signed by Auxerre. This could damage FC Zurich's hopes of gaining the third UEFA spot. With the 6 teams so close, this could swing the balance away from FC Zurich. Link:http://www.uefa.com/competitions/UEFACup/news/Kind=1/newsId=47947.html

St. Gallen has terminated the contracts of 5 players. They are: Jerren Nixon, Alexandre Jefferson, Sergio Colacino, Jan Berger, and Daniel Sereinig. Mabye they hope to fill these spots with players from FC Wil?

Fc Aarau has signed Serhiy Skachenko, a ukrainian forward from FC Metz. According to FC Metz's website, he was not on the first team. This would make sence because FC Aarau is not in a great financial position to brimg in new players considering their financial state.

Massimo Lombardo has resigned with Servette FC for three more years. This will keep the vital part of the SErvette midfield there until 2005. Here is the link:http://www.uefa.com/footballcentral/news/Kind=2/newsId=49493.html

Ljubo Milicevic (Basel) loaned to Thun for the rest of the season

[RobtheAggie]

From LNA:

"Thun: Milicevic does not qualify

Despite contradicting info, Ljubo Milicevic (22) will not wear the colors of FC Thoune. In accordanc with the new FIFA rules, the australian defender, who has already played with two clubs this year (Zurich and Basel), had to recieve a waver to play with the team of Hanspeter Latour. The commission of qualification of the National League has decided to not allow the matter, saying that the player should stay within his contract abd could share his talent at Basel, or at Zurich."

That leaves him in a tough spot. Basel does not want him, but Thun does. I bet we see Milicevic with Basel's reserve team this spring.

Serge Yoffou (32) has signed with Thun until the end of the spring round. He last played with Delemont.

FC Wil has recieved on loan from Grasshoppers Gerardo Ariel Morales (28) untill the end of the spring round. He did not see any playing time for Grasshopper in the fall round.
