Player Info
Lia Wälti is the metronomic heartbeat in midfield for both Juventus Women and the Swiss national team, renowned for her composure, tactical intelligence, and exceptional passing range from a deep-lying playmaker role. The Swiss international's career began at FC Luzern before she moved to Germany to join Turbine Potsdam, where she developed into one of the league's most promising midfield controllers. Her big break came with a transfer to English giants Arsenal Women in 2018, where she quickly became indispensable, orchestrating play and providing defensive stability as the team won the FA WSL title in 2019. After several successful seasons in London, she made a high-profile move to Italian champions Juventus in 2024. With Switzerland, Wälti is the captain and a centurion, the pivotal figure in the engine room in every major tournament. Her club honors include the Swiss league title with Luzern, the Frauen-Bundesliga with Potsdam, and the English WSL with Arsenal. Individually, she has been named Swiss Footballer of the Year. Wälti's game is defined by her calmness under pressure, her ability to dictate tempo, and her pinpoint long-range distribution, making her one of the most complete defensive midfielders in the women's game.
