"All 29 players have the opportunity to fulfill their dream by appearing in Europe. But good performance is the key."
"The best from this moment will compete to be part of the European. There will be 26 players who together make a strong group. Some young players have the opportunity to gain experience," said Petkovic.
Zeqiri has long been a target of the Kosovo Football Federation, but he decided to play with Switzerland U21 in Europe.
The other invited Albanians are Granit Xhaka, Xherdan Shaqiri, and Admir Mehmedi.
