Steve Rouiller: The Pillar of Servette FC and his Evolving Role in the Team

2023-07-06 19:37:48

Steve Rouiller (32) will be one of the pillars on which Servette FC will be able to rely on the resumption on July 22 in Zurich against the Garsshoppers and during a summer that promises to be eventful…

Holder or not, Steve Rouiller remains invariably the same. Always imperturbably calm, at the service of the community. Pillar of the Servettian rear guard, his arrival coincided with that of Alain Geiger. In the off-season, the Valais mentor left La Praille. Not him. He is still part of the squad. Our colleague Yohann Roduit from Rhône FM met him, while the first team of the SFC is finishing its traditional training camp in Valais…

A week in Crans-Montana

Present in Crans-Montana since last Sunday, the Servettians end their training camp on Friday. If this week at altitude was intended to work on the physical condition of the players, it also had to allow the new coach René Weiler to get to know his players better. A group that has remained stable in recent years, like Valais defender Steve Rouiller (32). In five seasons, his role has inevitably evolved.

Progress materialized last year by a very good season. 2nd in the Super League, qualified for the second qualifying round of the Champions League against Genk, the Geneva team had also reached the semi-finals of the Swiss Cup. After such a 22-23 exercise, what are the objectives for this new season?

But beware, the repetition of matches represents a major pitfall, which does not prevent you from dreaming.

In Crans-Montana, the Geneva team is working on all the parameters. The physical condition, the mental but also the social aspect. An important element for a team that changed coaches this summer. Taking office on June 19, the new coach René Weiler must get to know his players. A difficult situation for the team to manage?

Invested, just like Steve Rouiller. Arrived five years ago at the Garnet club, the Valais defender played one hundred and fifty-eight matches in the Servettian jersey. At thirty-two, how does he see his future?
