KFF general secretary Eroll Salihu said “we would be honoured to have Adnan represent
us but we don’t want to put pressure on him”. Federation president Fadil
Vokkri also went public stating “contact
with his family has been made and we hope to speak to him, directly, very soon”.
Impression...Januzaj has been on good form this season |
Ever since scoring twice against Sunderland in the Premier
League recently Januzaj has been the subject of heavy conversation in England concerning
his international availability. English national team manager Roy Hodgson has
stated his interest and Belgium, the country of his birth, have already been
turned down by the youngster on several occasions.
Turkey, Serbia and Albania remain other options but Kosovo
is rumoured to be his first-choice despite the territory’s currently disputed
status. Bayern Munich winger Xherdan Shaqiri and Napoli player Valon Behrami
are 2 of the many players who’d be eligible and have expressed interest in playing
for a FIFA-recognised Kosovo team.
The Kosovar representative side have not played at
international level since a 3-2 loss in Pristina to Albania in February 2010.
