After an almost 8-month hiatus following the termination of his contract with Umraniyespor in Turkey, former national team player Ermir Lenjani has made a comeback to his beloved Switzerland. He recently signed a contract with FC Schaffhausen, a team competing in the second-tier of Swiss football, the Challenge League.
Lenjani's return to Switzerland is marked by his stint with Umraniyespor, and the termination of his contract led him to explore new opportunities. FC Schaffhausen, currently struggling at the bottom of the Challenge League standings, sees Lenjani as a valuable addition to both the defensive and offensive aspects of the team.
The influence of the club's Sports Director, Admir Mehmedi, a former Albanian-origin striker for the Swiss National Team, appears to have played a role in Lenjani's decision to join Schaffhausen. Mehmedi sees Lenjani as a perfect player for the left-back position as well as an asset in the offensive department.
As for the team's current standing, FC Schaffhausen is positioned at the bottom of the Challenge League. Their primary objective this season is survival, with plans to strengthen the squad in the summer to make a push for promotion back to Swiss football's top tier. Lenjani, with his experience and versatility, is seen as a perfect addition to the team as they strive to accomplish this mission.
