Kosovo champion Drita has confirmed the return of defender Hajdin Salihu, a move intended to reinforce the club’s defensive capabilities for the upcoming season. The 24-year-old defender is set to rejoin Drita in Gjilan, following a period playing abroad. His contribution is anticipated across both domestic league matches and international competitions.
Salihu was previously a key player for Drita during the 2023/24 campaign. However, he departed the club in the summer of 2024, transferring to the Ukrainian club LNZ Cherkasy for a reported fee of 250,000 euros. Last season, his career path took him to Warsaw, Poland, where he featured with a Polish club on loan.
Following the completion of his spell in Poland, Salihu has made the decision to recommit to Kosovar football, specifically returning to Drita. The Gjilan club officially announced the defender’s reintegration via its social media platforms. This confirmation signals a significant reinforcement for Drita as they prepare for the new competitive cycle.
The anticipation is that Salihu’s experience and defensive prowess will be vital assets as the team aims to meet its objectives throughout the upcoming season.
