National team legend joins blue Sport Alain Sutter's big TV comeback

For the start of the Champions League, blue Sport is strengthening its team with a prominent new addition: Alain Sutter joins the top-class team of experts. The "Home of Football" will also be showing YB's play-off second leg against Galatasaray live and exclusively.

blue Sport has scored a major coup with Alain Sutter. The 56-year-old started his successful career at GC, from where he then moved to Nuremberg, Bayern and Freiburg in Germany. Alain Sutter played a total of 62 times for the Swiss national team, including at the 1994 World Cup in the USA. From 2018 to 2024, Alain Sutter was Head of Sport at St.Gallen.

"I like the way blue Sport interprets football: extremely knowledgeable, but in a relaxed, easy-going atmosphere. I've always found that very enriching. I'm delighted to now be part of the team," says Alain Sutter.

Claudia Lässer, CEO of Entertainment Programm AG: "Alain Sutter is a legend of Swiss football with an incredibly packed rucksack of experience. We are delighted to have him on board our blue Sport team. He is not only a proven football expert, but also has the ability to present complex tactical analysis in an understandable way and explain the game in all its facets."
