The Albanian Football Federation (AFF) has reached an agreement with Italian coach Andrea Tedesco to take charge of the Albanian U-17 National Team.

Tedesco, who has a rich CV as a coach in Italy and internationally, will sign a one-year contract with FSHF. He will lead the U-17 National Team in the finals of the European Championship “Albania 2025.”

The 39-year-old coach was most recently in charge of Napoli U-19 and previously led Malta’s U-19 National Team for two seasons. Andrea Tedesco also served as the assistant coach for the Romanian team Universitatea Craiova 1948 and began his career managing the Italian team Casertana.

The new U-17 National Team coach, Andrea Tedesco, will stay in Tirana while he leads Albania U-17, to be as close as possible to Albanian football and the Albanian Football Federation.

He will be fully committed to scouting and monitoring talents and will start immediately to prepare for the U-17 European Championship finals, which will be held in Albania under the organization of FSHF in collaboration with UEFA.
