    There are currently 4 Americans playing in the various Swiss leagues.

    Remo Staubli - FC Aarau (Axpo Super League) 1st Division
    Chad Barthlome - BSC Old Boys (1st League Promotion) 3rd Division
    Seth Moses - USV Eschen Mauren (1st league Classic) 4th Division
    George Weah Jr - Team Vaud/LS II (2nd League Interregional) 5th Division
    Staubli has played both matches for Aarau this season. They are 1-1, with a 3-1 loss at FC Basel and a 4-2 home win over Luzern. Staubli even scored the second goal for Aarau.
    Team Vaud is a combined team from a few clubs, and acts as the Lausanne Sport reserve team as well. The 1st Division Promotion starts on 3 August, and the 1st League Classic and 2nd League Interregional starts on 10 August.

    How recently?

    With a little more digging, it seems that he was playing with the II team, which plays in the 4th league (8th Division). The Sounders reserves seem to just a tad bit higher of competition.

    I just looked at the USV Eschen Mauren website, and he is no longer listed with the first team. The first known American to play for a Liechtenstein team seems to be gone.

    I had a Norbert Schmeidler in FC Basel's youth setup last season. Has he moved?

    Still there. He does not show up on the US page, but does on the German one. He is on the U17 team this season.

    Staubli goes 70 min for Aarau and scores his second goal of the season. When he left the score was 2-2. Aarau eventually lost 4-2 at Grasshopper Club Zurich. Highlights will be available sometime on monday. I will link to the highlights when they are ready.

    There are quite a few pictures of the match here. Barthlome is #16, and he showed up quite a bit. So he obviously played, I am still digging up any stats on the match.

    Highlights of the Aarau-Thun match are not up yet.

    I am sorry for the mistake. According to the official notes from the match, Barthlome did not play due to family issues. http://www.el-pl.ch/fr/desktopdefault.aspx/tabid-2008/tg-2144657/
    I am sorry for the mistake.

    I believe you can add David Blumer, who appears to still be at
    SC YF Juventus, to your list.

    Good catch. I thought that he was gone.
    He played the first 60' of their 1-1 away draw at FC Zurich II. He was on the field for both teams goals.

    That brings us to the following players:
    Remo Staubli - FC Aarau (Axpo Super League) 1st Division
    Chad Barthlome - BSC Old Boys (1st League Promotion) 3rd Division
    David Blumer - SC YF Juventus (1st League Pormotion) 3rd Division
    George Weah Jr - Team Vaud/LS II (2nd League Interregional) 5th Division
    Norbert Schmeidler - FC Basel U17 team
