Andrin Hunziker (born 21 February 2003) is a Swiss professional footballer who plays as a forward for Swiss Super League club Basel.[1]
Club career
[edit | edit source]Hunziker started his youth football by local amateur club FC Therwil, but soon moved to the Basel youth academy and advanced through this regularly. He graduated to Basel's first team during the winter break of their 2020–21 season under head coach Ciriaco Sforza. Hunziker played his domestic league debut on 27 February 2021 in a 3–1 league defeat against St. Gallen as he was substituted on in the 70th minute.[2][3] On 10 June 2021 Basel announced that Hunziker had signed his first professional contract with them and that this was over four years, until summer 2025.[4]
On 26 July 2022, Basel announced that they would loan Hunziker out to Aarau for the 2022–23 season, stating that a purchase option was not agreed.[5] Aarau confirmed the deal on the same day, stating, that Hunziker would gain on playing experience.[6] The season was successful, not necessarily for the club who ended the season in fourth position in the table, thus missing their declared aim of promotion, but for the striker, who had scored eight goals in 28 appearances.[7]
Following his loan Hunziker returned to his club of origin for their 2023–24 season and in his first league game scored his first league goal for them. However, it could not help the team because they were defeated 2–1 by newly promoted Lausanne-Sport.[8] In the Swiss Cup first round match one week later he scored his next, it was the team's sixth, as Basel went on to win 8–1 against amateur club FC Saint-Blaise.[9]
Then on 24 August, the club announced that Hunziker had seriously injured himself during training. The diagnosis has now been made that he had suffered a torn cruciate ligament and a partial tear of the inner ligament. He had to undergo surgery would not be available to the team for several months.[10]
On 28 June 2024, Hunziker joined Karlsruher SC in German 2. Bundesliga on loan.[11]
International career
[edit | edit source]Hunziker is a current Swiss youth international. He scored his first goal for the U-17 team in the game on 27 October 2019 as they won 7–0 against San Marino U-17.[12] He also played four times for the Swiss U-20 team
