Club career[edit]

VfL Osnabrück[edit]

On 24 May 2016, Ajdini joined 3. Liga side VfL Osnabrück.[1] On 31 July 2016, he made his debut in a 0–1 away win against Preußen Münster after coming on as a substitute at 58th minute in place of Jules Reimerink.[2] Twenty-six days after debut, Ajdini scored his first goal for VfL Osnabrück in his second appearance for the club in a 4–2 away defeat over Werder Bremen II in 3. Liga.[3]

SV Sandhausen[edit]

On 28 June 2021, Ajdini joined 2. Bundesliga side SV Sandhausen, to replace the injured Dennis Diekmeier as the second choice.[4] On 25 July 2021, he made his debut in a 0–2 home defeat against Fortuna Düsseldorf after being named in the starting line-up.[5]

Return to VfL Osnabrück[edit]

On 20 June 2023, Ajdini returned to VfL Osnabrück, shortly before promoted to 2. Bundesliga.[6]

International career[edit]

Ajdini was eligible for Kosovo and Germany internationally, as well as Sweden, his birthplace. On 25 May 2021, he received a call-up from Kosovo for the friendly matches against San Marino and Malta,[7] he was an unused substitute in these matches.

Personal life[edit]

Ajdini was born in Halmstad, Sweden, where his parents had emigrated to escape the tensions of the Yugoslav Wars, and later settled in Schloß Holte-Stukenbrock, Germany. His family was deported back to Veliki Trnovac in August 2003, but he returned to Germany a year later after being adopted by a German family living in Hövelhof and taking their surname Renneke instead of his original surname Ajdini.[8] On 5 March 2019, he re-took his birth surname "Ajdini".[9]
