In the winter, MLS clubs were interested in 25-year-old Swiss midfielder Christian Witzig, but he remained at FC St. Gallen. Witzig is considered an attractive transfer target due to his versatility. It is stated that he fulfills the complicated Brexit requirements for a transfer. It is also mentioned that FC St. Gallen would not demand a high transfer fee for him, making him a potential bargain. It is noted that clubs from the English Championship, for example, could easily pay such amounts. In April, Witzig extended his contract until June 2029, though whether he will fulfill it depends on how concrete any offers become in the coming days. He has stated that a move within the Swiss league is not an option for him. A year ago, Witzig was close to a move abroad, but a shoulder injury during the transfer window prevented the transfer. He has one cap for the Switzerland national team, and his market value is listed by Transfermarkt as €3.00m.
