Energie Cottbus is the leadership leader of the third division and has plans for a stadium conversion. Mario Basler wants to help.
Mario Basler played for several years for the 1st FC Kaiserslautern (1987 to 1989 and 1999 to 2003) and for Bayern Munich (1996 to 1999) for several years. The former middle player did not rose for Energie Cottbus. But now the 56-year-old wants to help the traditional club and the first league in the first league.
Basler was on site at the derby against Dynamo Dresden (1-1) last Saturday. Cottbus coach Claus-Dieter “Pele” Wollitz then spoke at the press conference about Basler and explained: “Mario is a guy. I like that. We had a very exhausting evening here before the Brittersknaller, it went very long and on The headache tablets were not enough for the next day.
“Bangs” is an indoor tournament. Like Freiburg icon Nils Petersen, Basler played for the Bundesliga selection. On the evening that Wollitz spoke, according to “Bild” the idea should have come that Basler could support the club as a stadium ambassador. Among other things, the association wants to convert the stadium. The floodlight system must be renewed for a second division license. According to Wollitz, however, this is difficult. The state policy in Brandenburg was therefore not open to this.
Basler recently told the “RBB” in terms of Energie Cottbus: “I spent a few nice evenings here. What was recently built up in Cottbus has to be rewarded. I would like to help the club for the 2. League has easier. “
