Cedric Itten (* 27 December 1996) is a Swiss professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Luzern in the Swiss Super League on loan from Basel.

Club career

Itten started his youth football with FC Black Stars Basel in 2003, and then moved to BSC Old Boys a year later. In February 2007 he transferred to Basel and played in their U-18 team and their U-21 team before he signed a three-year professional contract on 21 August 2015.[1] and joined their first team.

Itten made his league debut for Basel on 21 February 2016 during the 5–1 home win against Vaduz.[2] He scored his first league goal for Basel on 21 February during the 4–1 away win against Lugano.[3] Under trainer Urs Fischer Itten won the Swiss Super League championship at the end of the 2015–16 Super League season. For the club it was the seventh title in a row and their 19th championship title in total.[4]

On 18 June Basel announced that they were loaning out Itten to Luzern, until the end of the 2016–17 Swiss Super League season, so that he could gain first team playing experience.[5]
