In the wake of the central defense reinforcement, another Albanian football talent is set to be under the guidance of coach Jose Mourinho at Roma. The 18-year-old forward, Kevin Zefi, has officially joined the "Giallorossi" from Inter with full rights in this transfer window.
Zefi showcased his skills as a forward at Inter's youth ranks, becoming one of the primary goal scorers for Inter U18. Now, having made the move to Roma, he will have the opportunity to train with the first team and catch the eye of "The Special One," Jose Mourinho, while eagerly awaiting the chance to make his debut in the prestigious Serie A.
This season, Roma has faced offensive challenges, with Paulo Dybala and Andrea Belotti dealing with physical setbacks, leaving Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku as the sole attacking option. Therefore, if Zefi impresses during training, he might have the chance to play a significant role in the second half of the season for Roma.
The young Albanian talent's move to Roma not only signifies a promising step in his career but also adds another layer to the diverse array of talents emerging from Albania in the football world. As fans eagerly anticipate Zefi's potential contributions, his journey with the "Giallorossi" under Mourinho promises to be an exciting chapter in Albanian football.
