He was close to getting transfered to Juventus. Albanian passport makes him a local in Italy and the team doesn't have to free foreigner spots (max 2 players that are not EU citizens). So Edi Rama is a Juventus fan and probably made them a favour.

So is the transfer off now?

A lot of staple guys are falling off or getting old, and we have no real youth of note coming through so far. I guess, as usual, youth players tend to pop out, so we never know, but we are getting older at some important positions.

Who's getting old besides Djimsiti and Hysaj? And they both should have at least 1 more qualifiers in them if they want it..

Everyone else is mid 20s and younger.

New players always pop out.. most of the time out of nowhere.

The only hope for a team to do well is for some billionaire oligarch like Mane or Kastrati to buy a team, but they don't seem interested at all in sports.

That’s our whole country

mountains , sea , everything sold off to oligarchs

hyper capitalism everywhere

greed by all

non stop corruption and a very stupid population who aren’t serious at all

I have little hope for our nations football team or anything outside of it

Owners don't own teams for entertainment, but to make a quick buck. Even the good teams sell their best players right away. Dinamo made more money from European qualifiers than selling their 2 best players this summer, but they still got rid of them and kneecapped their own chances to qualify for groups.
Mentality straight from Babylon!

Take, take, take, turn a profit wherever you can!

You can't blame Duka for FFK..

That's why this Avdullahu case is extremely rare. There are more players who were part of Kosovo and left(like Besfort Zeneli, Edvin Kurtulus, etc) than there are players who rejected other countries to play for Kosovo. Avdullahu is a unicorn along with Valon Berisha.

So why are they refusing Kosovo so much? Imagine players like Ardon Jashari playing for Kosovo. It would be one of the best teams in the Balkans.

Jashari isn't eligible for Kosovo as his parents are from Macedonia. He'd be only eligible for Albania. And most players refuse Kosovo for the same reason they refuse Albania. They play the waiting game to see if they can play for Switzerland or Germany and when they find out they can't they come crawling. Ironically, Avdullah probably would have been part of the Swiss team in some kind of capacity so him committing now is a surprise.
