It was rumored in recent days that Silvinjo had personally contacted him and convinced him to join the Albanian national football team, but Leon Avdullahu seems to have had a clear final choice.
The talented Hoffenheim midfielder made one of the most important decisions of his career yesterday evening, choosing to represent the Kosovo National Team.
Thus, the 21-year-old, who grew up in the Basel academy and has represented Switzerland in the youth national teams, has chosen to definitively reject the Swiss national team.
Avdullah's decision was confirmed by FFK president Agim Ademi.
" The wait is over, Leon is from Kosovo. I am pleased to share with you the great news that Leon Avdullahu, guided by his heart, has decided to play for the Kosovo National Team. Leon informed me tonight about the big decision, which follows the meeting we had a while ago when we had discussed everything. Leon, with this decision, once again strongly proved that Kosovo remains a choice of the heart and that identity and origin are not denied. Welcome Leon, let's start together a long and successful path for the Kosovo national team and for you," Ademi wrote on social networks.
Avdullahu in midfield will be an additional weapon for the Dardanian national team, considering a formidable attack with elements like Edon Zhegrova, Fisnik Asllani and Albion Rrahmani, who is shining with 3 goals against Sparta Prague at the beginning of this season.
Avdullahu has played since his beginnings at Basel, while this summer he was sold for 8 million euros in the Bundesliga, to Hoffenheim. In his debut match, the Kosovar star gave a brilliant performance against Bayer Leverkusen, while his value in "Transfermarkt" has increased to 10 million euros.
