Emmanuel Tsimba, who is on loan from BSC Young Boys, could now make his first appearance in the starting lineup for Grasshopper Club Zürich.

Gerald Scheiblehner said that Emmanuel Tsimba is highly talented and, with his pace, provides something to their attack that they previously lacked.

Emmanuel Tsimba has joined Grasshopper Club Zürich.

Emmanuel Tsimba, a 19-year-old Swiss U20 international, will play for GC until the end of the season after joining on loan from league rival YB. The forward, considered a great talent, made only seven appearances for the Bernese side this season, which prompted the loan move. In a press release, the GC sporting director stated he was very pleased that Tsimba would complement the team's offense, adding that the player's profile fits their current direction and provides additional variability. Tsimba will wear the number 19 at GC. His contract with parent club Young Boys is valid until June 2029, and he has earned 6 caps and scored 2 goals for the Switzerland U20 national team. The centre-forward's current market value is €500k, according to Transfermarkt.
