Enis Alushi is a decent central midfielder who as a youth earned himself a reputation good enough to warrant a call-up from the German U-19 national team.

Alushi is a midfielder by trade, a trade that started at TV Obernhundem as a youth and culminated in the signing of a professional with FC Koln 2 in 2004 – the same year as he was picked to represent the Germany Under 19’s.

He quickly progressed through the ranks and was able to move to FC Koln’s main squad, before leaving to join SV Wehen Wiesbaden. A season later, Alushi joined SC Paderborn 07, where he featured regularly and was picked 131 times where he scored in 5 occasions.

This season he is representing FC Kaiserslautern and we are certain that he will climb up the ranks to attract a contract into the German Bundesliga. Had the Albanian FA shown enough interest, they might have been able to attract a potential powerhouse to a national team lacking midfield options, however in Alushi’s case, we will all just have to wonder as to what it could have been.

Alushi has been reported as being engaged to Fatmire Bajramaj – one of the best female footballers in the world – who is also coincidentally of Albanian heritage.
