Blerim Džemaili , (born 12 April 1986) is a Swiss football midfielder of Albanian origin from the Republic of Macedonia. He currently plays for Napoli.

Club career

FC Zürich

Džemaili started his career at Swiss side FC Zürich. There he was part of the 2005–06 and 2006–2007 Swiss Championship winning team. In Swiss side, he was chosen Captain in 2005-2006, and is one of the youngest Captain in Swiss football history.

Bolton

Džemaili signed a preliminary contract agreement with Bolton Wanderers on 9 February 2007, meaning that he would sign for the Premiership outfit once his contract ran out in the summer of 2007.[1]

Former Bolton manager Sam Allardyce was quoted as saying: "Džemaili is a fantastic player, who has played for the best team in Switzerland for the past three years. For someone so young, he has a wealth of experience. At the tender age of 20, he is the skipper of FC Zurich and is expected to become a regular international for Switzerland in the years ahead. He has hardly missed a game for FC Zurich since he started playing for them at the age of 17. I am excited by the prospect of working with Blerim next season".

However things did not go as planned for the pair; Džemaili sustained a long-term injury only months prior to his move. Xhemaili made his debut as a substitute in the club's FA Cup defeat to Sheffield United in what proved to be his only showing of the 2007-08 campaign.

Torino

Džemaili joined Torino on a season-long loan deal, on 1 September 2008, making his debut with Torino on 24 September 2008, and became a staple fixture in their side for the season. Despite their relegation to Serie B, Torino confirmed they had signed him on a permanent basis after they agreed an undisclosed fee with Bolton.[2][3]

After played once for Torino at Coppa Italia,[4] Džemaili completed a loan move to Parma on 31 August 2009. In exchange, Daniele Vantaggiato moved to Turin.[5] His first and second halves were then bought by Parma in the summers of 2010 and 2011.[6]

Napoli

On 25th of June 2011 he signed for Napoli with Fabiano Santacroce and Manuele Blasi going the other way to Parma .

International career

He is a member of the Swiss national team, and was called up to the 2006 World Cup.
