Philippe Senderos

Awards & Honours

Records

While individual silverware eluded him, Senderos achieved something rarer: longevity and adaptability. He played at three World Cups for Switzerland, a feat few defenders match. His FA Cup winner's medal at 20 made him one of the youngest starters in that final's history. At club level, he earned promotion with Granada and won the Scottish League Cup with St Mirren, proving his value across leagues. His transition to Technical Director at Servette shows a mind for the game beyond playing.

AwardsSenderos's trophy cabinet reflects team success rather than individual honours. He won the FA Cup with Arsenal in 2005, the Scottish League Cup with St Mirren in 2015, and the UEFA European Under-17 Championship with Switzerland in 2002. He also helped Granada secure promotion to La Liga in 2013.
