Imran Bunjaku (born 18 October 1992 in Zürich, Switzerland) is an Albanian professional footballer who plays for Swiss Super League side Grasshopper Zürich as a midfielder.[1][2]
International career
Originating from Kosovo with ethnic Albanian parents and born in Switzerland, Bunjaku was eligible to play for Switzerland, Albania and Kosovo if a national team should be formed, but in March 2011 he answered the call by Albania's Under-21 coach Artan Bushati for a non official friendly tournament held in Slovenia.[3]
He officially gained Albanian citizenship on 26 August 2011 along with his Grasshopper team mate Mërgim Brahimi, in order to compete in the UEFA Under-21 Championship qualifiers.[4][5]
