Agon Fatmir Muçolli (born 26 September 1998) is a professional footballer who plays as a left winger for OB. Born in Denmark, he has represented both Denmark and Albania at the youth level.

Career

Muçolli was born in Fredericia, Denmark, to ethnic Albanian parents from Podujevo, Kosovo. He began his career with local club Fredericia before signing a professional contract with Vejle in 2016.[1]

International career

Muçolli was capped by Denmark at under-16, under-17, and under-19 levels between 2013 and 2016.[2][3] In 2016, Muçolli stated that he would switch to play either for the Albania national youth team or Kosovo, rather than the Danish youth team. Eventually he took a place on the Albanian team.[4] In September 2017, the Albania national under-21 teams coach Alban Bushi confirmed that both Muçolli's brothers would join the team as well,[5] brokered by fellow U21 international Ylber Ramadani, a recent arrival in Vejle.[6] Muçolli was invited along his brother Arbnor to play for the Albania national under-20 team by Bushi for a friendly match against Georgia on 14 November 2017, though Arbnor had to withdraw due to an injury.[7][8] He received Albanian citizenship on the day of the match to become eligible to play as "red and black".[9] He subsequently started for Albania U20 against Georgia, loosing 0–3. Bushi stated that the match had been a test match to try out players for the upper under-21 side.[10]
