Wikipedia - FC Aarau
FC Aarau is a Swiss professional football club based in Aarau. Founded in 1902, the club competes in the Swiss Challenge League, the second tier of Swiss football after being relegated from the Swiss Super League.
History
FC Aarau was formed on 26 May 1902 by workers from a local brewery. The early days of the club were a success and they won the Swiss championship in 1911–12 and then again in 1913–14. The club spent 25 years, from 1907 to 1933, in the top league but were relegated to the lower league and were unable to return to the top flight for a number of decades. In the 1980–81 season the club were able to return to the top league in the Swiss football pyramid after a 3–1 victory over Vevey-Sports. They have stayed there ever since and in the 1992–93 season they won the Swiss National League A managed by Austrian Rolf Fringer.
The club have also had success in the Swiss Cup finishing as runners up in 1930, 1989. In 1985 Aarau tasted their only victory in the Swiss Cup, coached by Ottmar Hitzfeld.
At the end of 2002 the club was almost in financial ruin. They were saved when the then Club President Michael Hunziker made 15,100 shares available to purchase. This succeeded in staving off the threat of liquidation.
Former manager Urs Schönenberger stood down in 2006 and the role was assumed by his assistant manager Ruedi Zahner. Ruedi was born in Aarau and spent nine years at the club as a player in two separate spells. However his appointment only lasted a few months. During the winter break in the 2006/07 season Zahner was replaced by FC Baden coach Ryszard Komornicki on a temporary basis. However, with relegation looming Gilbert Gress was brought in with three games to go. The move was a success and the club gained 5 points from the remaining games and so escaped relegation by one point. Gilbert Gress decided not to renew his contract with the club and so former Polish international Ryszard Komornicki returned. He has signed a contract until Summer 2010 but was replaced in June 2009 by Jeff Saibene who didn't last long as he was sacked on 12 October after Aarau achieved only 5 points in 12 games.
After closely loosing out to promotion into the Swiss top flight for more than 5 years, the start of the 2025/26 season with 7 league wins and a cup win against YB Bern was good.
The team's colors are traditionally white and black, and they play their home matches at the Stadion Brügglifeld, which boasts a vibrant atmosphere and a loyal following. Aarau has experienced various successes throughout its history, including multiple stints in the Swiss Super League, where they have faced off against some of the country's top clubs.
Aarau is also recognized for its youth academy, which has produced several notable players who have gone on to achieve success in both domestic and international football. The club emphasizes teamwork, discipline, and a strong work ethic, making it a respected name in Swiss soccer.
With a focus on both competitive success and community engagement, Aarau continues to strive for excellence, aiming to return to the top tier of Swiss football and make a mark in the hearts of soccer fans across the nation.
