The 26-year-old Frenchman has left Valenciennes after a solitary Ligue 1 season in which he scored two goals in nine starts, accepting a four-year contract with Zürich. "He will make us more unpredictable up front due to his physical presence," said Zürich sporting manager Freddy Bickel of a player who stands 1.93m tall. Hassli began his career at FC Metz before spells in England, with Southampton FC, and Switzerland with Neuchâtel Xamax FC, Servette FC and FC St. Gallen.
