(5 years ago)Four days earlier, April 17, Shkodran Mustaf turned 29 years. Instead of being in a career peak, after three days he would fall out of Bundesliga with his new team, Schalken. What happened to World Champion 2014 with Germany? Mustaf Shkodra was viewed as a guardian [...]
Shkodran Mustaf was viewed as a promising defender in Germany until he played for the young people of Hamburg. He had gone to Everton, whose stadium the team had said that “is offering him the feeling of home”. To get past Everton, he had rejected teams like Manchester City and Newcatle United.
Mustaf was a defender who played in Germany's U-16, Germany U-17, Germany U-18, Germany U-19, Germany U-20 and Germany U-21.
Very few world-level players have such achievements at the new stages of their game, writes Periscopi.
Mustaf also gained place in the German Senate and became world champion in Brazil in 2014.
At all levels, it turns out Mustaf has managed to play 81 times, score 13 goals. For adults, he scored 2 goals in 20 matches.
For Everest in the town of Liverpool, he did not play a single match at Premier League, but the debut was held in a European League match against Bate Borisov.
SAmpdoria was the team that gave him the opportunity and developed his talent, even though he played in the position of the right defender primarily.
51 matches in Serie and 1 goal was the balance of defenders of Albanian origin.
As 22 years old, he manages to become part of the Spanish team Valencia, in which the club played 64 times and scored 6 goals.
But it was Arsenal that gave him the best chance, both at once the most spectacular failure.
35 million pounds was paid by the team from North London for Mustaf, a sum that was considered high at that time.
In time, however, Mustaf exposed the major problems he had at the highest level of football. He did a lot of cooking in London's heavily dedicated defense. He proved to be a slow player, and he had a strong sense of position in the field.
On February 1st of this year, Mustaf went to Schalke 04, a club not known how much he paid. Schalke was fighting for survival, but he's already fallen from the league after yesterday's loss to Armina Bielefeld.
Mustaf even at Schalke failed to be a good player, and from next season it will be part of Bundesliga 2 at the best age.
