Career

Early career

Kruja signed a three-year contract extension in January 2014 with a €100,000 release clause.^[2][3]

In January 2015 he joined Saudi Professional League side Hajer Club for a transfer fee of $70,000, where he signed a three-year contract worth $300,000.^[4][5][6]

He was loaned back to the Albanian Superliga as he signed an 18-month loan deal with Flamurtari Vlorë shortly after signing for Hajer Club. However, Kruja's loan at Flamurtari was cut short and he subsequently went to join another Superliga club in Laçi on a season-long loan deal.^[7]
