Almir Kryeziu

Almir Kryeziu joined Shkëndija Tetovo as a free agent, signing a contract running to the summer of 2028. The left-footed forward arrives with a title and a cup already behind him: at FC Ballkani he won the Kosovo championship and the Kosovo Cup in the same 2023/24 season.

Kryeziu came up through Liria Prizren's youth ranks before a loan spell at Rahoveci and a brief stop at KF Xërxa. His path to regular first-team football ran through KF Arbëria, where he made 36 appearances and scored five goals, then FC Drita, where a longer run produced 57 matches and five goals. The move to Ballkani in the summer of 2023 marked a shift in output rather than just level: over three seasons he played 88 games and scored 22 goals.

At international level, Kryeziu has represented Kosovo's under-21 side, making his debut in 2020 during European Championship qualifying and going on to play two matches for the age-group team. He has not featured for the senior national side.

Now at Shkëndija, wearing the number 11 shirt, Kryeziu is playing in North Macedonia's top flight and in the UEFA Conference League this season.
