Freuler began his professional career in Switzerland with Winterthur in 2009, later moving to Grasshoppers. He returned to Winterthur before transferring to Lausanne in 2014. His career took a significant turn when he moved to Italy's Atalanta for approximately 3.5 million euros, spending six successful seasons there.

His next move was to the English Premier League, with Nottingham Forest acquiring him in 2022 for around 8.3 million euros. After a loan spell at Bologna in 2023, the Italian club signed him permanently for about 2 million euros. He impressed in Serie A with Bologna before becoming a free agent this summer, leading to his transfer to Olympiacos.
