Benjamin Siegrist, born in Therwil, Switzerland on 31 January 1992 (age 34), is an imposing 6ft 5in (1.96m) goalkeeper now with Genoa. His early senior career took him through a handful of modest stops, including Cambridge United in 2013-14, where he made three league appearances.
The spell that gave his career its clearest shape came at Dundee United. Across two seasons he made 66 league appearances, becoming an established first-team goalkeeper rather than another well-travelled squad option. That period at Tannadice was strong enough to earn him a move to Celtic in July 2022.
At Celtic, Siegrist was more deputy than central figure, but he was part of a successful squad. He won the Premiership, Scottish Cup and League Cup during the 2022-23 campaign, a clean domestic sweep for the club even if his own role was limited.
He left Celtic in July 2024 for Rapid Bucureşti, before moving on again to Genoa, where he wears squad number 31. His career has been steady rather than spectacular, with Dundee United still the period that most clearly defines him as a senior goalkeeper.
