Jayson William Leutwiler (born 25 April 1989) is a professional soccer player who plays as a goalkeeper for EFL League Two club Port Vale. He was capped by Switzerland up to under-20 level. He later transferred his national allegiance to Canada, receiving his first call-up to the national team in October 2016. He was chosen for their squads at the CONCACAF Gold Cup in 2017, 2019 and 2021. He will become a free agent when his contract expires on 30 June 2024.
A product of the Basel academy, Leutwiler never played a first-team game for the club and instead spent time on loan at Concordia Basel, Yverdon-Sport, Wohlen, and Schaffhausen. He signed with English Championship club Middlesbrough in August 2012, where he would play five games in two seasons before joining Shrewsbury Town in June 2014. He immediately established himself as the club's first-choice goalkeeper, playing every league game as Shrewsbury secured promotion out of League Two at the end of the 2014–15 season, keeping a club record 23 clean sheets. He was signed by Blackburn Rovers for an undisclosed fee in August 2017, having made 140 appearances in three seasons with Shrewsbury.
Blackburn secured promotion out of League One at the end of the 2017–18 campaign, though Leutwiler made just thirteen appearances in his three seasons at the club. He spent September 2020 to January 2021 at Fleetwood Town and then ended the 2020–21 season as a back-up goalkeeper at Huddersfield Town. He joined Oldham Athletic in June 2021, where he featured 31 times in two seasons before joining Port Vale in June 2023.
