The Leeds United player got another win under his belt, this time for his country.
Leeds United appear to have signed a corker in the form of Ezgjan Alioski and the Macedonia international enjoyed a fine start to the international break, playing his part in a 1-0 victory against Israel on Saturday.
The visitors’ goal came courtesy of Goran Pandev and ensures Macedonia secured their second victory of this World Cup qualifying campaign.
Unfortunately for Alioski and co. they are in the same group as Spain and Italy, who have 19 and 16 points respectively, and as a consequence the Leeds winger will not be playing at Russia 2018.
That said, their latest victory is a huge step in the right direction and it will be interesting to see how the new Leeds addition fares in the years to come.
He has certainly started as he will mean to go on at Elland Road, scoring one goal and providing three assists to date and looking every inch a Leeds star in the making.
At 25, Alioski is arguably yet to reach his peak and Leeds appear to have signed him at the perfect time.
If he can continue as he started, the attacker could fire Thomas Christiansen’s side back to the Premier League after far too long away, and he looks set to be a superstar for club and country for some time to come.
Next up for Macedonia is a match against Albania on Tuesday evening, where Alioski and his international teammates will be looking to make it the perfect international break.
From there, it is back to Leeds in a bid to maintain their brilliant start to the new campaign.
