Albania calls up Ireland's youth player Kevin Zefi
Kevin Zefi has been called up to Albania's Under-21 squad for upcoming friendlies, despite previously representing Ireland at various youth levels. This move raises questions about his international eligibility. Ireland Under-21 coach Jim Crawford stated that Zefi remains tied to Ireland and noted the complexities of switching national teams. He emphasized that Zefi is still part of Ireland's plans. Albania's manager has formally included Zefi in the squad, increasing the stakes in this tug of war. Another Irish-born player, Justin Ferizaj, is also considering a switch to Albania.
