Marc Crawford’s return also comes with risks
On the first day at work after returning to the ZSC Lions, coach Marc Crawford seems almost old-aged and in a good mood. But despite all sentimentality: his comeback also entails risks for the ZSC.
Actually, Marc Crawford would have followed up with his wife Aruba want to fly, it should be the first winter holidays since 2002. But instead of the Caribbean, Crawford, 61, landed in Zurich’s winter fog. The ZSC Lions hired their former coach on Wednesday, with a contract until 2025. Crawford, 2014 champion with ZSC, says it was he who made the first advances, texting sports director Sven Leuenberger shortly after it became known in October that Rikard Grönborg would leave ZSC WILL leave at the end of the season. After completing his first ZSC training session in the Swiss Life Arena, Crawford said on Thursday afternoon: “I was also in contact with other Swiss clubs. But I wanted to go back to Zurich, ZSC has a big place in my heart. I’m extremely happy to be back here.”
