Nino Ziswiler (born 23 October 1999) is a Swiss former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.[1]

Early life

Career

He joined the youth academy at FC Thun in 2011.[3] He was promoted to the senior squad at FC Thun in 2018 but remained as a back-up, with his progress stalled by a cruciate knee ligament injury in 2019.[2]

He started playing regularly for FC Thun in October 2021 after an injury ruled-out first choice goalkeeper Andreas Hirzel. He made his league debut on 22 October 2021 against FC Aarau, keeping a clean sheet in a 2–0 win.[4][5][2] He had to have surgery himself on an injured shoulder in August 2022.[6]

In July 2023, he signed a new two-year contract with the club.[3] He missed a large part of the 2023-24 season with an ankle ligament injury.[7] However, on his return to action, he broke his fibula in a pre-season friendly against FC Sochaux in July 2024.[8] He helped Thun win the 2024–25 Swiss Challenge League, but made no appearances as they won the 2025–26 Swiss Super League title.[9] He retired from playing at the end of the 2025–26 season.[10]
