Gabriel Wüthrich (born 28 August 1981 in Echallens) is a Swiss footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for AC Lugano in Switzerland. In May 2010 he signed a 2-year contract with Axpo Super League Club FC Luzern.
Career
Wüthrich began his professional career at FC Biel-Bienne in 1999 before he moved to Neuchâtel Xamax in 2000. He battled for the Number 1 jersey for his first two seasons at Neuchâtel and eventually became the first-choice goalkeeper during the 2002/03 season. He left to join SR Delémont in 2003. However, the move did not seem to pay off as he was no-longer first-choice and was used in a rotation system, only playing once every few weeks. At the end of the season, he moved to FC St. Gallen in the Swiss Super League where he was back-up to Stefano Razzetti. FC Vaduz acquired his services in 2006 and he was the undisputed Number 1 during his first season but when Swiss Under-21 internationalist goalkeeper Yann Sommer joined the club on loan from FC Basel in 2007, his gloves were given up to the youngster. Sommer's loan was re-newed for another season in 2008, effectively ending Wüthrich's chances of making the first-team for another season. He left on 21 January 2009 FC Vaduz[1] and joined on 28 January 2009 to FC Carl Zeiss Jena.[2] After the season ended his contract, he left the club and signed later on 3 July 2009 with AC Lugano.[3]
