Earlier this month, Sheffield Wednesday allowed Yann Valery to join Young Boys on loan until the end of the season.
The Tunisia international made his debut for Young Boys when he came off the bench in a defeat to FC St. Gallen on 11 February.
Last weekend, the Sheffield Wednesday player played the full 90 minutes and provided two assists in a 6–1 win over FC Winterthur.
Friday edition of blick Looks at how the right-back can help the Swiss club and discusses his future beyond this season.
Why did the Owls approve the loan move?
Valeri played regularly under Henrik Pedersen and has made 23 Championship appearances for the Owls this season.
The English club is struggling financially and is in the process of finding a new owner.
Blick claims that Valeri is one of Sheffield Wednesday's top earners and his exit will at least allow them to shed part of his wages.
The newspaper believes that this move will also benefit them from the sporting point of view and will improve their chances of making it to the World Cup. Whether this is the case or not remains to be seen.
Good start for Sheffield Wednesday loanee
He provided two assists in their previous win, and credited his new teammates for helping him settle in.
"The team gave me a great welcome. It made my first game a lot easier. The two assists were just a bonus," He said.
Before joining Sheffield Wednesday, the fullback worked in England with Southampton. During his time at St Mary's, the Saints sent him on loan to Birmingham City. It is believed that his previous difficult experience in England will help the Young Boys now.
"I learned this in England. But I have known it since I was a child. Later, I also experienced the battle of exile on the island," Valerie explained.
As things stand, the Tunisian is set to return to Sheffield Wednesday at the end of his loan spell. The Owls are bottom of the table, and are unlikely to play in League One next season.
This will give Young Boys a chance to retain him beyond this season. However, Blick has warned that if he continues to shine, there could be more clubs queuing up to sign him.
The newspaper suggests the price could rise if 'powerful Championship clubs make serious offers'.
