With memories of the golden years (80's) of the albanian football still fresh on her mind, Albania is now attempting to recreate its strong football legacy. As young players start making their names abroad, the future is looking bright for Albanian football!

I just read that Ferencvaros paid something like $1.89 million for Uzuni. How can this club pay that kind of money. I didn’t think I they were that rich. I remember Tirana almost knocking them out of champions league 10 years back.
Ferencvaros was in the group stages of Europa League last year (almost went though to the knckout) and won the Hungarian league several years in a row. Based on that alone they'll have money for a transfer fee.
In general, Hungarian football has been getting large investments from the government (probably corruption). A ton of stadiums have been built in Hungary over the years. Even Liridon Latifi was sold for like one million euros to Puskas Academy.
Myrto Uzuni almost certainly has Roma/ Balkan Egyptian ancestry. His father and siblings also seem to have a significant amount of South Asian admixture.
