SC Langenthal signs Lüthi and Müller, extends contract of Christen

Valentin Lüthi will leave EHC Biel at the end of the season and join SC Langenthal. The Swiss League team has also signed the SCL Tigers' Yves Müller. Luca Christen, who is a product of SC Langenthal, has been signed to a contract extension.

Lüthi has agreed to a two-year deal with Langenthal. The contract includes an out clause for the second season. The 24-year-old defenseman has played via B-license for HC Ajoie this season, recording one goal and three assists. Lüthi joined Biel in 2016 from the SC Rapperswil-Jona Lakers.

Furthermore, Langenthal has signed youngster Luca Christen to a three-year contract, valid until the end of the 2020-21 season. The 19-year-old defender is currently in his first full season with the Swiss League team (one goal in 28 games).

Yves Müller, who has played for Langenthal via B-license this season, will stay in Langenthal beyond this season. He has been signed to a two-year contract. The 28-year-old will thus leave the SCL Tigers after four seasons.
