Silvan Schiess (born 11 July 2003) is a Liechtensteiner footballer who plays as a defender for 1. Liga club FC Balzers and the Liechtenstein national team.[1]

Club career

[edit]

In 2022 Schiess was part of the FC Rapperswil-Jona reserve side competing in the 2. Liga Interregional.[2] The team began the season undefeated in its first five matches and had the highest goals-per-match average at that point.[3] He scored three league goals during his final season with the club.[4] Ultimately, Schiess made three appearances in the Swiss Promotion League for the first team.[5]

In June 2023, Schiess joined Liechtensteiner club FC Balzers as the club prepared for its first season in the 1. Liga following promotion.[6][7][8] He was unable to appear in any matches during the first half of the season after suffering a torn cruciate ligament. However, in January 2024, the club announced that he had been cleared to play the second half of the campaign.[9]

International career

[edit]

Born in Switzerland, Schiess was called up to represent Liechtenstein for the first time for 2023 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification.[10] He went on to make seven appearances for the team in the competition.[11]

Schiess received his first senior call-up for a friendly against Gibraltar on 16 November 2022.[12][13]
