Cinzia Vittoria Zehnder (born 4 August 1997) is a Swiss professional footballer who plays as a midfielder. Since her debut in June 2014, a 7–0 win over Serbia, she has been a member of the Switzerland national team.[3]

Zehnder came to the attention of FC Zürich after playing against them in a friendly for FC Kirchberg. She signed for FC Zürich as a youth prospect but quickly made her first-team debut on her 15th birthday, registering an assist. Playing alongside Zürich's veteran German duo Inka Grings and Sonja Fuss aided Zehnder's development. National coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg called her up to the national team and in summer 2015 was reportedly helping her to secure a transfer to the professional German Bundesliga for a higher standard of club football.[4] In May 2015, Zehnder joined SC Freiburg. In June 2017 she returned to Zurich as she continued her studies in medicine.
