Picture this: 34,000 fans crammed into St Jakob Park, draped in red and white, belting out the national anthem. Captain Lia Wälti singing along with tears in her eyes. It was July 2, 2025, and Switzerland was about to kick off the UEFA Women's Euro on home soil.
Not a bad way to spend a Wednesday evening.
The Swiss side did something they'd never done before, reaching the quarter-finals after navigating three group stage matches. Spain ultimately ended the dream with a 2-0 victory, but by then the damage - the good kind - was already done.
English clubs had been watching. And they liked what they saw.
Before the tournament, just four Swiss internationals plied their trade in the Barclays Women's Super League. Afterwards? Nine. That's more than double, for those keeping score at home.
Livia Peng landed at Chelsea. Iman Beney headed to Manchester City. Leila Wandeler signed for West Ham United, while Géraldine Reuteler secured a move to Arsenal, WSL Football reports.
Euro 2025's real triumph may not be measured in goals or wins. The tournament thrust Swiss women's football into the spotlight, opening doors that were previously barely ajar. More visibility, more opportunities, more players competing at the highest level.
For Swiss football, the party is just getting started.
