Club career
Turun Palloseura
Pyyhtiä played in the youth sector of Turun Palloseura (TPS). He made his senior debut with TPS first team in 2019, playing in the second-tier Ykkönen. After TPS won the promotion for the next season, Pyyhtiä debuted in Veikkausliiga in 2020, making 18 appearances and scoring one goal.[2]
FC Honka
After TPS got relegated back to Ykkönen, Pyyhtiä was loaned out to Veikkausliiga club Honka with a purchase option, ahead of the 2021 Veikkausliiga season.[3] Soon after the season started, Honka exercised their option to permanently sign with Pyyhtiä.[4] The total fee was not disclosed, but TPS got a compensation of the loan and of the permanent transfer separately, and has a sell-on clause.[5][6]
Bologna FC
On 30 August 2021, Pyyhtiä signed with Italian club Bologna for an undisclosed fee.[7][8] However, the fee was reported to be around €500,000 and could potentially rise to €1 million with add-ons. Honka also has a sell-on clause.[9] Pyyhtiä was first registered to their U19 Primavera squad.
He made his Serie A debut for Bologna on 17 January 2022 in a match against Napoli.[10] In the 2022–23 season, he made six appearances in Serie A and additionally one appearance in Coppa Italia.[11][12][13]
Ternana (loan)
On 17 August 2023, Pyyhtiä extended his contract with Bologna until 30 June 2026, and joined Serie B club Ternana on loan for the 2023–24 season.[14][15][16] He made his debut with the club on 19 August 2023, in a 2–1 home defeat against Sampdoria, as a 46th minute substitute to Filippo Damian. In the process, he assisted his side's only goal.[17] On 27 February 2024, Pyyhtiä scored his first goal in Serie B for Ternana, in a 3–2 win against Palermo.
International career
Pyyhtiä is a regular Finnish youth international. He has represented Finland in European qualifiers at under-17, under-19 and under-21 levels.[18]
