"We will play with three or four import players as of next season," Müller says in the hockey show The Hockey Week. Although EHC Kloten's CEO Lehmann said a couple of weeks ago that he wants to plan the upcoming season without any foreign players. "This is a vision and it's good to have visions," Müller states. "But it's a question of whether this is feasible."

As for this season, Kloten started with three imports and acquired Tomi Sallinen as a replacement for Tommi Santala who suffered an injury. Asked about a contract extension regarding Sallinen (currently valid contract until mid-October), Müller said: "We'll see."
