Barnetta has become a Switzerland regular in the last two years since being a surprise inclusion in the squad for Euro 2004. The Bayer Leverkusen star played in nine of his country's World Cup qualifiers and netted his first international goal in the 3-1 friendly win against Scotland in March. The midfielder began his professional career with St Gallen and initially moved to Germany after Euro 2004 when he was snapped up by Hannover. The 21-year-old sealed a transfer to Leverkusen at the start of the 2005-06 season. He is a rugged part of the midfield and is happy to allow flair players like Daniel Gygax pick up the plaudits.
