FC Basel have been active in both the winter and summer 2025 transfer windows, bringing several players back from loan and securing new signings. Notably, a large group of returning players includes Metinho from Troyes, Đorđe Jovanović from FK Partizan, Andrin Hunziker from Karlsruher, and others rejoining from stints at clubs such as Sporting Gijón, Deportivo La Coruna, Braga, Aarau, and Vaduz. Additionally, Axel Flory Pierre Kayombo joined Basel from Sturm Graz for €2 million, and Maurice Malone was signed from Austria for €1.2 million[2].

Recent months saw the arrival of Xherdan Shaqiri, who returned to his childhood club on a free transfer from Chicago Fire FC in August 2024, and the signing of Bénie Traoré from Sheffield United[6]. New additions also include Philip Otele, Leo Leroy from Montpellier, and Kevin Rueegg from Verona, showcasing Basel’s strategy of blending youth returns with experienced signings[4].

The club’s leadership, with Fabio Celestini as head coach and Shaqiri as team captain, continues to focus on rebuilding and revitalizing the squad ahead of the new campaign at St. Jakob-Park[5]. Basel has recently been highlighted for their pursuit of young talent, attracting interest from top clubs for their standout performers as the team navigates the post-European campaign and reflects on last season’s early Conference League exit[5].
