FC Sion targets Conference League after strong Super League finish

FC Sion Christian Constantin Didier Tholot Swiss Super League Conference League qualification

Swiss club FC Sion, led by long‑time president Christian Constantin, finished the 2025/26 season in fourth place, securing a spot in the Conference League qualifiers. The team posted the league’s best defence, conceding only 40 goals in 38 matches, and enjoyed a ten‑match unbeaten run.

Constantin praised coach Didier Tholot, whose contract was extended to 2029, for bringing stability after a period of frequent managerial changes. He said the club aims to improve on last season’s performance and become "the best team in the country".

The club’s recent progress follows a return to the Swiss Super League in 2024 and a previous avoidance of relegation after finishing ninth in 2025. Constantin and sporting director Barthélémy Constantin are focusing on continuity in the squad and transfer market to sustain the upward trajectory.
