Transfers

- Geri Cipi after beein without club for 3 months has finally decided to return in Albanian League signin for SK Tirana.
I think this is good for him, since we despretly need him in NT so now we just hope he gets back in full form before the match agains the Danemark.

- Ismet Munishi has left Kosova league and signed for Besa Kavaja. Munishi is experienced player and last year played for Flamurtari Prishtina. THis season he started with Kosova P but after some conflicts with the coach decided to leave and from the next week he's goin to play for his new club Besa.

[Albion]

5 new players arrived to Partizani, even though they havent anounced the names but it seems there are 3 brazilians (Karioka, he used to play for Partizani earlier) and the other 2 are from Scotland.

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

The ex-goalkeeper of FK Partizani ,Nallbani has refused to come back to Partizani,actually he has a contract with SK Tirana but it seems like he doesnt like himself there and want to go to another team.

[Minotti]

Is Nallbani related to the singer Manjolla Nallbani?

[Amir]

It is very good that Geri Cipi signed for Tirana because without playing for a club he became useless for the Albanian NT - at a point when the team needs his desperately.

True...
and if he continues to play nasty as before, he'll never be able to go outside Albania anymore.

[kf_prishtina]

It is true that Altin Rraklli has signed for KF Tirana

Rraklli was in Bundesliga, but finally he get to come to his club he always loved SK Tirana
His 1s match for Tirana and he scored his 1stgoal for Tirana since 1992.......

[Albion]

Last season best Superliga scorer Vioresin Sinani few days ago left his club in Turkey Kayserispor and returned to Albania, and stated that wants to play for his old team Vllaznia again.
The reason that he left Kayserispor is a red card that he received against Istanbulspor. Turk Federation banned him for 2 matches, and later his club banned him for another 3 matches and charged him with 20 000 dollars which he refused to pay and thats why confilict started, and coach told the club managment that they do not need him anymore... and in the end he's back in Albania and ready to play for Vllaznia.

This way Vllaznia makes a deadly duo Salihi - Sinani with Abilio behind them.

[Ilirian]

Elbasani wants Ardian Gashi not dat one that we all know :lala: buts is another Ardian and he play forward and he is also from Kosova. dis will be second kosovar in Elbasani after Armedn Dallku

[Albion]

Dinamo sent striker Djibril Sisokho and midfielder Ousmane Diop on loan to Partizani, as they will bring 2 other senegalese players to reinforece their attack.
Good news for Dinamo is that ofensive midfilder Massei Gaye has recovered and will be big help for the upcomin matches. He scored 2 goals in last match.

Also Vllaznia will search new players as Zyambo, Oliveira and Singbo all left the club. Coach Bici himself declared that he needs new players to come since in the last match against Partizani he had to call 3 players from youth squad to fill the number for the match.

[Albion]

New striker that Dinamo have been mentionin is finally with the team and wish probably play against Laci this week.
ElHadji Gudyabi is 25 yo from Senegal and seems to be in good condition, his contract hasnt been anounced yet.


Meanwhile Partizani anounced Adenilson Rocha, and Sasha Delain that played before in Albania with Vllaznia.

Ziambo has returned to Apollonia Fier, team that bought him first in Albania. He couldnt find a reguar place with Vllaznia and decided to leave to division 1 with Apollonia again.

[Albion]

Leadin scorer in 2nd division Alban Rexha who plays for Kastrioti may play in Kosova in spring as he is very close to sign with Flamurtari.
Rexha is having some problems with Kastriotis managment he admited that he agreed terms with Flamurtari and in January he is expected to sign contract.
Rexha played before for Partizani and Egnatia in first division.

In the other way seems that one of 2 Flamurtari starters Munishi or Fetahu will leave the club for another kosovar team, and its probably goin to be Fetahu that will leave.

[Albion]

Mahir Halili, Alpin Gallo and Luan Pinari, that were sacked from Dinamo last week are all training with Partizani and expect to sign in January.
Anyways there are problems with Halili, based on rules he cant sign with Partizani bcz he alredy played for 2 other teams in Superliga this season. The other two can sign and start playin in spring.

[Albion]

Elbasani is lookin to bring some new names in January. 3 names have been mentioned, all albanians that have been playin abroad, ofensive midfilder Ilir Qorri, and 2 strikers Daniel Xhafa and Eldorado Merkoqi.

Also Dinamo has been linked with Qorri and Xhafa, but seems that Elbasani has an advantage since players are willing to fight for a title.
Dinamo till the end of the month will also bring a senegalese player that plays centre back.

[FitaALBANIA]

Redi Jupi - Dirabakirsporit has been contacted from Dinamo president Besnik Sulaj. Sulaj made offer for him, but there is one problem that he has signed contract with Dirabakirspor until the end of season.

Redi Jupi once upon used to play for NT. He is one os the best player in Dirabakirspor.

[Albion]

Yeah Redi Jupi was player of the year in Albania few years ago when he played for Dinamo before joinin Tirana.
But I dont think he will return, not now, I mean he is doin well in Turkey why would he return

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

It was on the the news today that Salihi of Vllaznia and Dede of Tirana are in Creta(Greece) so they can maybe make a contract with a team in the Greek first division.I hope its not true because if Salihi ends in a country like greece he would not have the oppurtunity to show his own skills.Last summer he was offered a contract from FC Basel but he refused because he wasnt happy with the contract.He has also been training with Bologna of Serie A and some teams in Bundesliga this summer.I hope to see him soon in Serie A.

[Albion]

pffff... Salihi SHOULD stay at least till the end of the season. Look at Muzaka that chosed to go in Greece, and he was one of the best talents.

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

Dont worry I just spoke with Shkodra on the telephone right now.The news is saying only bullshit,Salihi is in Shkodra now training with Vllaznia,so we have nothing to worry about:)

[RedandBlack]

Where is Myrtaj going? It would be great if he got a contract at Perugia since we need another player in the Serie A after Tare retires.

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

Napoli is interested to get Myrtaj.Fortuzi of SK Tirana has signed a 6month contract with Iraklis in the greek 1st league.

[Albion]

Fortuzi again in Greece huh ? :rollani: he want last much for sure

[RedandBlack]

Iraklis bought Bakalli... Now there are 3 albanians on Iraklis :crazy:
lol...there are 3 teams with 3 albanians Arminia Bielefeld, Hellas Verona, and now Iraklis

[Albion]

Gentian Bylykbashi has returned to Shkumbini after spendin almost a year with Egnatia.
Shkumbini's president said that others players are about to follow Gentian in 'new look' Shkumbini.


Ilir Qorri signed for Dinamo, so di Diop. Dinamo's president is not expeted to spend more money in winter brake.

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

RedandBlack has also bought the senegalplayer Keita from Dinamo Tirana for more than 1year ago and now he is one of the main players in Iraklis.:) Maybe Iraklis could be a way for albaniantalents to enter the Europe big Leagues,but me myself dont belive so.I think that greek League and turkish league is perfect were the albanian players can close their carrier.I'm glad that Muzaka went off fom Iraklis becuase if he stayed there he would destroy his talent.I want to see Salihi and Muzaka play for Bologna or Brecia maybe next year thats what I want.;)

[RedandBlack]

Juventus has offered 7.6 million dollars for Berhami. (Micheal Own sold for only 8 million) I only hope to see this kid against Croatia Jan 26.

[Albion]

Elbasani has made a move for Arminias Klodian Duro. ITs not sure if Duro will be back in Albania but team's president is prety confident, and exept him they have signed striker Migen Memelli.

Bomba ekip :)

[Albion]

Alban Bushi është shumë pranë rikthimit në kampionatin tonë. Nuk është çudi që edhe një herë tifozët e Tiranës të shohin në gjirin e skuadrës së tyre, në sfidën e parë zyrtare të këtij viti, një lojtar tjetër të kalibrit të kombëtares.

:eekani:

this was a suprise really... Tirana wants him to replace Fortuzi. If he joins Tirana we'll se again the duo Rraklli - Bushi

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

yeah it seems so,but in one way its good coze at least one albanian club can manage in the european clubs and maybe be a little bit known.But I wouldnt be sure if Tirana can go very far with this team,they still have much more to improve if they want to succeed in the qualifying rounds for Champions League.I think that with this team they have, they can go very far in Uefa Cup but not in CL.I hope all albanian old players can come in Superliga and finnish their career and in the mean time help the Albanian Superliga be more interesting.:)...I would love to see players like Kliton Bozgo,Foto Strakosha,Auron Miloti and so on come back and play in Superliga.

[Albion]

I would love to see players like Kliton Bozgo,Foto Strakosha,Auron Miloti and so on come back and play in Superliga.


good point... but I have no idea where Miloti could be now... I totally forgot him

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

Miloti is playing in Austrian second league,I dont understand why he isnt coming back.before he went abroad he played for Vllaznia.But no worries the old players will come back home and finnish their career,at least i hope so:)

[Albion]

Partizani made a offer for Armir Grima and tomorrow it will be known if he's goin to wear the red jersey.
Partizani need a keeper, and Grima has a lot experience and lately he has been the best keeper in Kosova.
His contract with Flamurtari expires in June

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

Ou why does the ALbanian news paper says that he plays for Prishtina,because I also know that he plays for Flamurtari.The paper said that Grima is the most paid player on the team ,is that true?

[Albion]

They write Prishtina... I saw that, but Flamurtari is from Prishtina also.... anyways, yes he has the highest salary in Flamurtari, after him are Cungu, Munishi and Fetahu.

and Grima deservs it, if it wasnt for him Flamurtari would be in deep shit really

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

ok,Today he singned for Partizani,while Ndreka has decided to stay at Partizani.Leandro is coming back to Vllaznia said the news today.

[Albion]

:wallbang:

sorry to see Grima leave Kosova, but meanwhile im happy cuz we'll crush Flamurtari easier in spring hehe

[Albion]

These days arrived in Tirana arrived Marc Libbra , still didnt sign a contract though.

Marc Libbra

http://www.ex-canaries.co.uk/images/libbra.jpg

Date of Birth: 05/07/1972
Nationality: French
Biography

Marc began his career at FC Istres and has since played for Olympique Marseille (France), En Avant Guingamp (France/loan), AS Cannes (France) and Toulouse (France). A loan spell at Hibernian in 2000/01 was highly successful. However Hibs and Toulouse could not agree a financial settlement for Marc's signature despite Toulouse's slip into bankruptcy and administration.

This enabled Norwich to swoop and the French striker was able to join the Canaries on trial at the beginning of July 2001. Making his debut in the pre-season friendly at Fakenham, Marc scored a hat-trick in a 8-1 victory at Clipbush Park at the end of his fortnight trial. City were keen to secure his signature but there was initially some concern over wages thus alerting Celtic to Marc's availability. This was not his first trial in England as he had trialled with Bolton in July 1999.

Marc signed a three year deal with Norwich on 27th July and then played in the friendly games against Leicester and Colchester. But the deal was not yet completed. The "loose ends" City admitted still needed to be tied up when Libbra was unveiled at a press conference took a few weeks to resolve, leaving Norwich to concentrate on gaining international clearance from the French Football Federation. Another delay was the fact that Toulouse were going through administration. Norwich company secretary Neil Doncaster told the Eastern Daily Press: "The administrators at Toulouse need to be tied in to the deal, as well as the club. Those are the loose ends that need to be tied up. We are hopeful that dialogue can be cleared up within 48 hours."

The transfer was finally completed mere days before the start of the 2001 season when the French Football Federation ruled that Toulouse no longer existed in their old format and that all their players were free agents. International clearance was granted and Marc was eligible to make the starting XI for the first match of the 2000/01 season against Millwall. The death of his father-in-law took Marc away from the trip to Millwall but he made his debut as a substitute against Man City the following week (18th August). His goal 11 seconds after coming onto the pitch is said to be the record debut goal for the Canaries. Marc followed that with the winning goal in the 89th minutes at Wimbledon on 25th August.

In April 2002, Major League Soccer (MLS) side Kansas City Wizards expressed an interest in signing Libbra, with a fee umoured to be £200,000. However both Norwich and Libbra rejected this enquiry with his talent needed for the final game of the 2001/02 season against Stockport and the play-offs.

Norwich and Marc parted company on 30th August 2002 in mutual agreement. Marc had slipped down the preferred list of strikers, even behind academy starlet Paul Hayes. With the form of Paul McVeigh and the imminent return of Zema Abbey, there was no place for Libbra and City sought to reduce their wage bill by letting Marc go to hopefully find a new club before the transfer window was shut. Marc was indeed successful and returned to France, joining Second Division Creteil. Creteil also signed former Tottenham, Celtic and Watford defender Ramon Vega at the same time.

After making 30 appearances for Creteil scoring 5 goals in 2002/03, Marc transferred in January 2004 to Corsican side Ajaccio. His first goals for his new team came against Louhans Cuiseau when he scored twice.

Libbra returned to Scotland towards the end of June 2004 when he signed for Livingston. Almondvale boss Allan Preston said: "Marc has looked after himself very
well and has a good goalscoring record."

[Ilirian]

he will not sign bcz Tirana manager doesnt like him he will go back home and another player will come and train with Tirana few days and see if manager likes him

[Albion]

True... he left, coach didnt like him and price that he asked seem to be high.

[Albion]

Lushnja is testing romanian 20 yo Preoteas Laurent. He will stay couple of days with the team.

[Albion]

Alban Bushi has signed today a contract with Dinamo Tirana. It was expected he goes to Finaland after he left Istanbulsport or a possible switch to Elbasani but he end with the blues.
He will be available for the next match and probably will stay with Dinamo until the end of this season.

[Benny]

I don't know, but it seems to me like to many teams that field Albanian NT players have a problem when those players play for the NT. At least that's what the reports say, these players are getting fined, left out of the playing roster etc just for playing with the NT, what the hell is going on?

[Albion]

Same happend with Alijaj, but he payed the fine...while Bushi refused to pay and left the club.
They probably wanted him to stay, maybe they had an important game or smth.

I know for Alijaj, they fined him bcz he played without theyr permision, he was injured we all know that.

[Doctor]

Hmmm this turkish clubs have been raising my eyebrows. First Sinani and now Bushi wtf? Avoid the turks I guess. Anyway Bushi is a very welcomed addition for Dinamo :)

Aliaj case it was different, he'll end up in Bundesliga next season anyway

[HajdukSplit]

According to a Croatian site it said that Bledi Shkembi left Kamen Ingrad but it didn't say for which club he signed for. Do any of you guys know where he went? He was a good player for Kamen and I am shocked that they would get rid of him.

[RedandBlack]

Metalur Zaphoryzia bought him. Its a team in the Ukrainian Premiere League.

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

I hope Blendi Shkembi find a place at his knew team and start playing a bit,because if he gets his form back he would fit perfect for the NT.
Bushi signed yesterday for Dinamo Tirana,lets see how much he will help Dinamo from now on... Cant wait to see SK Tirana against Dinamo watching Rraklli against Bushi :D

[Albion]

I think Edi Martini has signed a contract with Flamurtari Prishtina ! It has been mentioned he will go to KF Prishtina, but in the end he signed for Flamurtari.

As its known Martini played for Vllaznia and also for Eintracht Frankfurt.

[Ultras^Vllaznia]

Ervin Skela has signed for FC Kaiserlslauten in Bundesliga,and the contract is to June 2007!....this was a little bit surprised for me,I dont know if you knew about this thing before?

[RedandBlack]

Thats great news. Where did u hear about Skela's transfer?

[Albion]

Skela's transfer is done, truth is that they were not rumors or smth it just came out official yesterday.
