According to a report from transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Young Boys are close to signing Isaac Schmidt. Schmidt is a 26-year-old Swiss international who has earned 5 caps for his country. He is under contract with Premier League promoted side Leeds United until 2028. After joining the English club in August 2024, he did not establish himself and was recently on loan at Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga. FC Basel had also been linked with Schmidt, but they have since signed another left-back, making a move to Bern the likely outcome for the player. Recent reports from July 2026 indicate Leeds United's asking price for the player is between £2 million and £2.5 million.
