Remo Freuler

Remo Freuler of Bologna was born in Ennenda, Switzerland on 15 April 1992 (age 34).

Remo Freuler, born on 15 April 1992 (age 34), is a Swiss central midfielder with a steady, practical profile rather than a flashy one. His early senior career in Switzerland included a productive 2014–15 league season with Luzern, when he scored seven goals in 33 appearances.

He is now with Bologna, wearing the number eight shirt, and remains a regular first-team presence in 2025–26. Across all competitions for the club this season, he has made 40 appearances and scored one goal, including 29 in Serie A, 10 in the Europa League and one in the Coppa Italia.

Freuler has also stayed involved internationally, making four appearances for Switzerland in European World Cup qualifying this season. His current market value is around £3.5m, according to Transfermarkt.

His career has been built on reliability in midfield: a strong Swiss spell, a long run at a serious level in Italy, and continuing usefulness for both Bologna and Switzerland into his mid-thirties.

Remo Freuler remained a regular for Bologna in 2025-26, making 29 Serie A appearances, including 26 starts, with one goal. His output was not attacking-led, but the volume of starts and 10 Europa League appearances pointed to a central midfield role built on reliability and game management. Five league yellows also fitted the profile of a defensive midfielder asked to break play and control space.

Freuler’s career path has been steady rather than erratic, moving from Winterthur to Luzern, then into Serie A with Atalanta before a Premier League spell at Nottingham Forest and a return to Italy with Bologna. The Atalanta move was the clear step up, while Bologna represented a later-career reset after England. At 34, his continued league workload suggested he had not dropped into a peripheral role.

The transfer record shows a gradual rise in level: Winterthur to Luzern, a €1.1m move to Atalanta, then an €8.5m switch to Nottingham Forest in 2022. Bologna first took him on loan in 2023 before making the deal permanent for €3.9m in 2024, a lower fee that reflected age and contract value rather than a collapse in status. His listed market value of €4.00m sat close to that permanent fee.
