What a start to the season Edon Zhegrova is having. The Juventus attacker provided an assist for Kosovo during their match against Austria last night, as reported by Calciomercato.
The game ended in a 1-1 draw, meaning Zhegrova made an important contribution to Kosovo earning a point. The forward will now be eager to build on his impressive form when he returns to club football.
Zhegrova was expected to leave Juventus during the last transfer window after an underwhelming first season in Turin. However, the Bianconeri were unable to secure a suitable offer, so they kept him in the squad.
The decision appears to be benefiting Juventus. Zhegrova has shown that he can make an important contribution to the club’s success and has performed well so far this season.
Zhegrova is one of the best attackers in the Juventus squad when he is fit and in good form. Before the international break, he scored twice and provided an assist in his final two matches for the Bianconeri.
His performance against Austria demonstrated that his confidence remains high. He provided the assist in a match that ended 1-1, helping Kosovo secure a valuable point against a strong opponent.
Zhegrova has also remained fit during this period, giving Juventus further encouragement. The club can therefore expect him to continue playing well when he returns to Turin.

This is an important campaign for Zhegrova because he must demonstrate that Juventus can rely on him consistently. His first season was disrupted by poor form and fitness problems, but his performances this term have offered a more positive indication of his ability.
The Bianconeri will therefore keep him and continue to trust him as a player capable of making a difference. His pace, creativity and attacking quality give the team another important option in the final third.
