The prolific striker hopes to complete his transfer from Rennes to Borussia Dortmund this summer. After netting six goals in the World Cup qualifiers, Frei is rapidly taking on the role Stephane Chapuisat played so successfully for Switzerland in the last decade. He has scored goals at an impressive average of better than a goal every two games for his country and has also been a regular scorer for Rennes since signing for the French side three years ago. Before moving to France he played for FC Basel, Thun, Luzern and Servette. He was involved in a spitting incident against England at Euro 2004 - although he was cleared by UEFA after initially receiving a 15-day provisional ban. Frei was also alleged to have made obscene gestures to Turkey coach Fatih Terim during last year's World Cup play-off encounter.
