[edit]During the off-season a number of players left the team. The loan contracts of 5 youngsters came to an end, these being Gonçalo Cardoso, Sebastiano Esposito, Tomás Tavares, Albian Hajdari and Joelson Fernandes and they returned to their clubs of origin. The contracts with Pajtim Kasami and Andrea Padula were not renewed. Raoul Petretta decided himself not to renew his contract and he became free agent. Petretta had started his youth football with Basel in 2005. He played in all their U-teams and advanced to their first team in 2017. Here, between the years 2017 and 2022 Petretta played a total of 199 games for Basel scoring a total of 11 goals. 109 of these games were in the Nationalliga A, 13 in the Swiss Cup, 30 in the UEFA competitions (Champions League, Europa League and Conference League and 47 were friendly games. He scored 7 goals in the domestic league, 1 in the Cup, 2 in Europa and the other was scored during the test games.[7]
Valentin Stocker ended his active career. During his time with the club Stocker won the Swiss championship six times and the Swiss Cup four times. Between the years 2007 and 2014 and again from 2018 to 2022 he played a total of 515 games for Basel scoring a total of 116 goals. 286 of these games were in the Swiss Super League, 33 in the Swiss Cup, 57 in the UEFA competitions (Champions League, Europa League and Conference League and 99 were friendly games. He scored 74 goal in the domestic league, 9 in the Cup and 18 in the European competitions, the other 15 were scored during the test games.[8]
In the other direction, on 20 May FCB announced that the ex-international goalkeeper Marwin Hitz had signed in from Borussia Dortmund on a three-year contract.[9] Another player who signed in from BVB was Bradley Fink. The youngster had played for their reserve team and he signed in on a four-year contract. Four players came in on loan contracts. Two for Basel interesting loan signings were the Swiss international players Zeki Amdouni[10] from Lausanne-Sport and Andi Zeqiri[11] from Brighton and Hove Albion. The other two were Kasim Nuhu from Hoffenheim[12] and Andy Diouf from Rennes[13] On 18 June FCB announced that they had signed Jean-Kévin Augustin| from FC Nantes in a three-year deal.[14]
The team had five pre-season test games, two of which were against Xamax and these were both played in the Youth Campus Basel. The first was won the second was drawn. Two games were played in the training camp, against SpVgg Greuther Fürth and Botoșani and both were won. One game was played in St. Jakob-Park, against Hamburger SV, and this ended with a high defeat. Because the new head coach Alexander Frei changed the formation in each game, mostly substituting all 11 players during the break, all players received playing time, but to the spectators, it seemed that the team hadn't found their form.
