Visar Musliu (Macedonian: Висар Муслиу; born 13 November 1994) is a Macedonian footballer who plays for Fehérvár and the North Macedonia national team.
Playing career
Club career
Musliu started his football career in FK Renova where he spent most of his first 5 years. In between, he also spent 6 months on loan at FK Gostivar. The summer in 2014, he also transferred to Swiss side St. Gallen on a one year contract, but he didn't get to play there as they sent him back on loan to Renova.
On 3 June 2017, he made a transfer to Macedonian champion FK Vardar where they hired him as a reinforcement for the upcoming Champions League qualifications.[1] In the end, Musliu helped Vardar qualify for the 2017-18 Europa League Group stage, becoming the first Macedonian football club to ever qualify for a European UEFA tournament.[2]
On 5 August 2019, he moved from Shkëndija to Hungarian outfit Fehérvár.[3]
International career
Musliu was part of the Macedonia national under-21 football team from 2013 to 2017, winning 12 caps. He was part of the first Macedonia U21 generation that qualified for a final tournament[4] where he also got to play in the last game in the groups, coming in as a substitute in the 28th minute for Marjan Radeski in the match against Portugal.[5]
On 2 September 2017, he also made his debut for the senior national team in a World Cup qualifier against Israel, where Visar played the full game and helped his side keep a clean sheet in the 1-0 victory.[6] As of 1 April 2020, Musliu has earned a total of 20 caps, scoring 1 goal.[7][8]
