Elbasan 'Elba' Rashani (born 9 May 1993) is an Kosovo Albanian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Norwegian club Odd and the Kosovo national team.

Club career

Odd

He was born in Sweden to Kosovar Albanian emigrants, but grew up in Kragerø and Bø i Telemark and played for Skarphedin before he joined the then named football club Odd Grenland ahead of the 2010 season.[1][2]

Brøndby

2014–15 season

On 24 Juli 2014 Rashani made a €660K transfer from the Norwegian side Odd and signed a four-year-contract with the Danish club Brøndby which ties him to the club until the summer 2018. Elba was handed jersey number 14.[3][4] On 31 July Rashani made his Europa League debut when he was brought in for the final fourteen minutes in the 3–0 away defeat against the Belgium side Club Brugge.

Rosenborg

In January 2016, Rashani went out on loan to Rosenborg, with Rosenborg having the option to buy.[5] At the end of the 2016 season the move was made permanent with Rashani signing a two-year deal with Rosenborg.[6]

International career

Rashani was born in Sweden to Kosovar–Albanian parents, and was brought up in Norway. He represented Norway as a youth. In July 2015 Rashani told the Albanian media that he is looking forward to a call up from Albania's coach Gianni de Biasi.[7] However, he ended up getting a callup with the Kosovo national football team and made his debut, where he also scored his debut goal, in a friendly 2–2 tie with Albania.[8]
