Ylli Sallahi (born 6 April 1994) is an Austrian footballer who plays as a left back for Karlsruher SC in the 2. Bundesliga.

Early life

Born in Skenderaj to a Kosovar-Albanian family,[1] Sallahi moved to Austria when he was only eight months old.

Club career

Early career

In his youth he played for local club Kapfenberger SV before being signed by Bayern Munich in 2011.[2] He commented "I want to develop my career in a big club."[3] He was a regular for the youth team, playing 27 matches in the first season for the U19 team.

On 5 April 2014, Sallahi made his Bundesliga debut, starting away to FC Augsburg, after head coach Pep Guardiola decided to rest some of the players of the first team for the UEFA Champions League quarter-final against Manchester United. He was substituted after 51 minutes for David Alaba as Bayern, who were already league champions, lost 1–0.[4]

Karlsruher SC

On 19 December 2014, effective 1 January 2015, Sallahi signed a contract with Karlsruher SC which runs to June 2018.[5]

International

In January 2014, Sallahi refused to play for Albania,[6] whereas in May of that year he declared he would not play for Austria either, but only for Kosovo.[7] Nevertheless, he made his debut for the Austria U21 team in a 4–2 victory over the Czech U21 on 14 November 2014,[8] and has thus far earned five caps.[9]
