Ex-Herthaner Robert Kwasigroch wechselte nach Katar – mit großen Ambitionen.

Overview

  • Robert Kwasigroch moved from Hertha BSC to Al-Markhiya SC for around €300,000 and penned a five-year deal in Qatar’s second division.
  • His agent has stated the 21-year-old aspires to become Qatar’s national team goalkeeper in the future.
  • Under FIFA rules, five consecutive years of residence would qualify him to switch national allegiance, a criterion his contract satisfies.
  • Having made only one professional appearance, experts caution that his limited experience could delay or derail any national team ambitions.
  • Analysts see the move as part of a Gulf football strategy to build local leagues by investing in infrastructure and luring young foreign players with lucrative terms, raising questions over talent naturalization.
