On June 15, 2024, Italy and Albania begin their journey to the finals of "EURO 2024", with the direct clash for the account of group B. In Dortmund, the team of Spaletti and Silvinho will make their debut in this competition.
For the second time in its history, Albania plays in the European Championship, having secured the first place in the qualifying group E ahead of the Czech Republic, which also cut the European qualification ticket.
To do this, the red and black team relied on several players active in Italy, as well as some elements that Serie A fans know well from the recent past.
Players named "made in Serie A"
9 players out of the 27 called up by Silvinjo play in Serie A or B. In recent years, the best elements of Albania, or in any case the majority, have had the opportunity to compete in the Italian championship, given the geographical proximity and close connection between two countries.
In particular, the red and black national team can rely on these "Italians":
Etrit Berisha (Empoli)
Kastrati (Citadel)
Hysaj (Lazio)
Gimšiti (Atalanta)
Ismaijli (Empoli)
Plum (Sassuolo-Roma)
Asllani (Inter)
Eid (Sassuolo)
Ramadan (Leche)
Albania, with former Serie A players:
Not only the current Serie A and B players, but also some who have been part of the two Italian championships in the past.
Silvinho chose Strakosha, known for his past with Lazio, Ajeti (from 2015 to 2023 between Serie A and Serie B with Frosinone and Torino, among others) and Rei Manaj, who was part of Inter, Pescara, Specia and Pisa.
Other stars:
Albania was "dragged" towards the European Championship by Jasir Asani, decisive with 3 wonderful goals in the elimination campaign. Chosen by Silvinho, despite the transfer to South Korea, he more than anyone else repaid the coach's faith. In defense, the wings consist of Mitaj and Balliu, while in the attacking midfield, Silvinjo relies on the inventiveness of Broja. Even Daku takes his chances as an attacker.
