Zlatan ibrahimovic age

Zlatan ibrahimovic wife

Reset on:. The daughter of Kosovan migrants who emigrated to Sweden, Asllani has carried her heritage in her first name and the tattoo of a black-headed double eagle of Albania on her ankle. I love it. Asllani is no different. International football recognition from Fifa in came too late for a generation of Kosovar footballers who already made the pragmatic decision to represent the countries that welcomed their families in while their own was still fighting for independence.

Kosovare asllani current teams

Representing Kosovo was never an option for Asllani, but she will always be a representative for their people. I get a lot of messages. In October , Asllani and her Swedish international teammates Hedvig Lindahl and Lotta Schelin made an impromptu visit to a transit camp for refugees living in Sweden. For us, it was really important that we could go out to meet them and give them something else in their environment to do.

It was important for us and they really enjoyed it too It was just a good thing to do, I guess. Early in her career, as a young striker of Balkan heritage representing Sweden, Asllani had to face inevitable comparisons with fellow Swede Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Although the softly spoken Asllani is nowhere near as bombastic as Ibrahimovic, they share a desire to speak their minds.

In the end, Asllani was no more successful than Zlatan in bringing a coveted first Champions League title to Paris. She was in tears in Berlin as an injury-time goal from Mandy Islacker denied them extra-time in the final.
