FFC Frankfurt on 21 March 2018.[6]  In July 2020, 1. FFC Frankfurt became part of the club Eintracht Frankfurt is integrated and thus forms the club's women's football department. In early 2022, she extended her contract with Eintracht Frankfurt until June 2024.[7]

Reuteler completed the 2015 European Championship for Switzerland's U-17s and reached the final.[8]  In June 2016 followed the European Championship semi-finals with the U-19s of Switzerland, which, however, lost to France.  In 2017, Reuteler received her first call-up to the Swiss senior team and made her debut on 10 June 2017 when she came on as a 60th-minute substitute for Martina Moser against England.[9] She played for Switzerland at the Euro 2017.[10][11]
