I think he's a good example of a Mediterranean-type that can be found north of the Alps.

Agreed, he looks Italian AF. However, I haven't found any info that says he has Italian ancestry or that he isn't fully Swiss.

There are Italians in Switzerland for sure so possible.

I used to think Keith Moon was Irish-English because he looked just like a lot of my Irish cousins but it seems he isn't, so looks can be deceiving. He may not be Italian at all..

Yeah. If he had blue eyes and blond hair and super pale skin he would look Nordid though honestly. He has dark features, which gives an Italian look.

Bürki is more correct as spelling, it's a Swiss German surname, likely a South German surname (nothing to do with the Pakistani word :D).

Not that much. I mean, less than people think.

As I know Roman Bürki hasn't Italian ancestry.

Well, Meds are basically pigmented Nordids as their skull shapes are similar.
