Michael Frey
Michael Frey, the Swiss striker, attacks space and pins centre-backs as a primary number 9, using his physical frame to threaten the back post. Michael Frey checks short then spins in behind, finishing moves when the ball is played long. He thrives with efficient layoffs and holds. Frey began at BSC Young Boys in 2012, turning pro at 17. In 2017–2018 he helped FC Zürich win the Swiss Cup, scoring 16. In 2021 he impressed at Royal Antwerp, scoring 24 in 2021–22. He moved to Queens Park Rangers in 2024, then joined Grasshopper Zurich in Jan 2026. Michael Frey’s role stays a centre-forward who presses high and attacks the back post.
