Albanians abroad

With memories of the golden years (80's) of the albanian football still fresh on her mind, Albania is now attempting to recreate its strong football legacy. As young players start making their names abroad, the future is looking bright for Albanian football!

With him warming the bench, they have won 3 of their last 4 matches and have climbed out of the relegation zone.

Bonafide scrub.
A damn shame because he looked promising with the u21. The senior game really is a different beast.

But I guess the red flag on him was that he never dominated in the Albanian league.
Man you lot are very quick to abandon players if they have a bad run or aren't starting. Most Albanian players aren't good but it might just be a bad season.

Lmao. Princ is checking every game all year to see when Kallaku isn't starting. Dude is obsessed. That NK Lokomotiva team has switched like 3 coaches and all sorts of different formations and it's been shit with or without Kallaku.

Their season is almost over and he is most certainly going to leave at the end. Who gives af if he's starting or not in the last games, when he started most of their games. Lokomotiva is a selling team that brings new players all the time. That was a bad team that he never should have joined. It was bad luck.

Lokomotiv is a hot mess. All the Albanian players on that team have been disappointing this year whether its because of injury or other reasons. Mersinaj and Tuci have picked up long term injuries (Don't know what happened to Mersinaj). Cokaj has been disappointing after a solid season last year. Kallaku hasn't done anything this year. Lots of the problem is Lokomotiv is a feeder club and sold 8-9 starters from last years team and replaced them with cheap players they found in Albania and Bosnia. Lokomotiv were really bad this year with their transfers and lineup choices.

I don't blame this too much on Kallaku but that being said he's simply not NT material.

Which is the main point in all honesty.

Mihaj came back after six months with an assist for Zivkovic at PAOK's 2-0 win over bitter rivals Aris

Does it even matter if it's against youth players?

It's not!!!!!The league is professional, most of Villareal second team is 20+

For Manaj however being put in a weak league with Barca B is a blessing because people vastly overrate players that play for Barca B. Back when he wasn't even scoring in this league he had offers from PAOK and Kasimpasa, now even 2 months ago they were rumouring him to Serie B/A, Laliga, Bundesliga. He can get a big league move out of this, whether he performs is another story.

Having watched many of his games now at Barca B I will remark he appears to have improved technically. I see him holding the ball and taking on defenders, nice crisp pass with technique that he wasn't able to do before - it's valuable to remember he doesn't fit in at Barca B as physical player as they play possession ground-based football to train the youngsters for Barca first-team. So maybe he will gain something as a player when he leaves

Looks like Bajrami won't happen. Germany tried the same with Borna Sosa, an identical case to Bajrami and Fifa rejected their request too.
