Michael Lang has retired from professional soccer and taken on a new role as Sport Director at FC Wil, succeeding Jan Breitenmoser. At 33, Lang aims to bring continuity to the club, having built a vast network in football during his 18-year career, including in the Bundesliga. Despite his previous remarks about seeking overseas opportunities, Lang was convinced by Newcastle defender Fabian Schär to join FC Wil. Though ranked sixth in the Challenge League, Lang remains optimistic about the team’s potential for future success without setting immediate promotion goals.
