The January transfer window has been very active and has seen surprising moves from many footballers. And there have also been many Albanian players who have changed teams during January and will play for other teams in the second half of the championship, and even in other championships.
Undoubtedly, the three biggest moves were those of Manaj and Asllani, who were transferred to the Turkish championship, or even defender Klisman Cake who left the Macedonian championship to sign with Akhmat Grozny in Russia, where he hopes to get minutes and be re-called by the national team for the two matches in March.
With these two transfers to the Turkish championship, the Italian championship has now moved into second place in terms of the number of legionnaires, and the first place on the list has been taken by Turkey, which in recent years has become an oasis for many players not only from Albania, but also from the most elite championships in Europe, writes "Panorama Sport".
Turkish Championship - Kristjan Asllani is now active at Besiktas, while Rei Manaj has signed with the Sivaspor team, returning once again after the adventure he had in Iran. Meanwhile, Ernest Muçi is shining with Trabzonspor, but these are not the only ones as Indrit Tuci, Qazim Laçi, Arlind Ajeti and Taulant Seferi are also active in Turkey, bringing the number of national team players to 7. Another name who has played with Albania U21 but who has not yet been called up to the first team is Arda Kurtulan, while names such as Roshi, Rroca, Bardhi or Liço are added to the list of Albanian players who are active in the Turkish championship.
Italian Championship - There may be many Albanian players in Turkey, but Serie A undoubtedly remains the strongest league where Albanians have excelled and have even been declared the best footballers of the week or month. Ylber Ramadani and Medon Berisha are two players who are excelling at Lecce, just as Gjimshiti is doing at Atalanta. The other defender of the national team, Ardian Ismajli, has convinced with Turin but injuries have penalized him quite a bit, while goalkeeper Alen Sherri, who is now part of the Cagliari team, recently joined Serie A. Here, we are only talking about players who are part of the National Team A, given that from the age groups there are many Albanian footballers who are active with the youth teams, or even names like the Shpendi brothers who are shining in Serie B. In recent years, Serie A has been one of the championships that has supplied the most to the red and black National Team and who have stood out both with Albania and with their teams in the Italian championship.
Russian Champion - Although Russia is excluded from any international competition, two Albanian players are active in the Russian championship. Mirlind Daku is confirmed in the championship, where he excelled with Rubin Kazan, while the name of Klisman Cakes has also been added to the list. The defender is now part of Akhmat Grozny.
Spanish Championship - Marash Kumbulla and Ivan Balliu are the two players who are active in Spain, with the latter having been part of Iberian football for many years. Unlike Kumbulla who plays on loan, Balliu has tried to play with different teams and even with the Barcelona academy since his youth.
Croatian Championship - Arbër Hoxha is undoubtedly the headline of the moment when it comes to Albanian players playing in the Croatian championship. The Dinamo Zagreb striker is shining with his team and Adrion Pajaziti has also returned to the protagonist. The Albanian midfielder is part of Hajduk Split and has taken an important place.
Britain - In the English championship, Armando Broja is the player who represents Albania and is active with Burnley. The national team striker has started to get minutes and become active, while another representative is Anis Mehmeti, recently transferred to Ipswich in the Championship, but who seems to have not yet convinced coach Silvino to take him on the team. Not far from them, is Nedim Bajrami who is active with Rangers, also not at a good moment with the Scottish team and has often thought about leaving.
Albanian Championship - As is rare, there are two players from the Albanian championship who are regularly part of the National Team. Egnatia goalkeeper Mario Dajsinani and Dinamo defender Naser Aliji are the two players who are active in the Superiore, being protagonists with the teams they play for. The defender is currently injured, but is expected to be ready for the Albanian jersey by March.
