Erion Hoxhallari

Erion Hoxhallari (born 15 October 1995) is an Albanian professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Polish club Polonia Warsaw.

[2] Hoxhallari made his professional debut for Tirana on 23 November 2011 in the cup tie against Apolonia, playing full-90 minutes in a 3–0 home win.

[7] Following the debut, Hoxhallari established himself in the starting lineup, and went to play another 25 league matches until the end of the season as Teuta barely avoided the relegation to Kategoria e Parë.

[21] Later on 13 December, in the second leg of 2017–18 Albanian Cup second round versus Vllaznia, Hoxhallari was sent-off with a direct red card following a brawl with Ardit Krymi who was sent off as well.

[25] Five days after signing the new contract with Tirana, Hoxhallari was sent on loan at Laçi for the two Europa League matches versus Anorthosis Famagusta.

[26] He took squad number 2, and made his debut in the first leg at Antonis Papadopoulos Stadium on 12 July, netting a first-half header to make it 1–0 for Laçi but in an eventual 1–2 defeat.

[27] In the second leg, Hoxhallari earned praise for his performance as Laçi won 1–0 thanks to a late winner to ensure the progression to next round through away goal rule.

Hoxhallari received his first international level call-up aged 14 by coach Sulejman Demollari of the Albania under-15 squad, which were just founded in 2009 for participating in the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics (Football).

[38][39][40][41][42] Hoxhallari was called up for the first time in under-21 squad by the coach Skënder Gega for the qualifiers of the 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, where Albania was placed in the Group 4.
