Ghanaian defender Jonas Adjetey
Ghanaian defender Jonas Adjetey has shared his joy after helping FC Basel secure their first Swiss Super League title in seven years a triumph that also came with a domestic cup victory to complete a historic double.
The 21-year-old played a key role in the club’s success during the 2024/25 season, making 32 league appearances a remarkable leap from the previous campaign where he started just 11 matches.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with Flashscore, Adjetey reflected on the breakthrough season that saw him lift the first two major trophies of his professional career.
“For me, nothing really changed, but I just tried to do my best and then try to fit in the first team. But when I started, I was training with the first team and was playing with the second team.
“Then there was an injury to a teammate. I came in, and then I took my chance, and then right from there, I built on it,” he said.
Basel’s dominant season ended with them securing their 21st league title, finishing 10 points clear of nearest rivals Servette FC.
According to him, the title carried deep personal significance.
“For me, it’s meant so much because this is my first trophy. We jubilated after the Lugano game. Almost all the players came to the dressing room. We celebrated with the fans. During that week, we had like two celebrations,” he added.
