Milot Avdyli: I want to play in the Champions League and for Kosovo

Milot Avdyli is going through an important period in his career, as he is aiming for historic success in the Champions League with Celje.

The Kosovan footballer is one of the Slovenian team’s most important players. Avdyli scored a superb goal for Celje in their 1:1 draw against Slovan Bratislava in the first leg of the Champions League playoff.

But for the 24-year-old, success with the club is not his only goal. Avdyli hopes that after his good performances with Celje, he will take the next step – making his debut for Kosovo’s senior national team.

Avdyli wants to help Celje secure a place in the league phase of the “Champions League” and, at the same time, play for Kosovo.

“That was my best goal so far. The feeling was extraordinary, because I scored in the decisive stage of qualifying for the Champions League. I can’t count the messages I received; there really were so many. I want to play in the Champions League and for Kosovo. I hope both of these wishes come true for me this month,” Avdyli said, “24ur.com” reported on Monday.

After his good performances, Avdyli confirmed that he had been contacted by representatives of the

Football Federation of Kosovo. But a call-up to the senior team is not yet certain.

The winger has been captain of Kosovo U21. Competition for the winger positions is very intense.
