Given birth to on the 1st of February 1995 in the far-flung realms of Kosovo, Mërgim Vojvoda is well-versed in the strenuous tasks of a defender, predominantly plying his trade as a left back for Como. Not a meek man by any means, he towers at a height of 6ft (1.87m) and boasts a sturdy weight of 12 stone 3 pounds (78kg). Whether defending or attacking, the number 31 jersey is what you'll see adorning his back. Honouring his roots, he has turned out to represent the Kosovo national team on numerous occasions.
Known for his resolute defending, his worth on the market is no small figure. Currently, he is valued at approximately €3.00m (£2.5m), as per the fact-finding mission executed by Transfermarkt. His contract binds him to Como until the lunar month of June, precisely the 30th, in the year 2028.
Prior to his Italian sojourn, he spent the formative years of his career in the Belgian league. His maiden season of 2016 - 2017 at Royal Excel Mouscron saw him take the field 21 times. The ensuing season saw his appearances increase to 26. He rounded out his stint at Mouscron the following season on a personal high, with 29 appearances and his first professional goal to boot.
Seeking fresh challenges, Vojvoda then transferred to Standard Liege. During the 2019 - 2020 season, he added 25 more appearances to his tally, and another goal as well. Unfortunately, his tenure at Liege was cut short by injury, curtailing his season to just 3 outings the following year.
Subsequently, he made a transition to the competitively charged climes of Italy with Torino in the 2020 - 2021 season, contributing two goals in 24 appearances. His tenure continued with consistent appearances, clocking in 29, 29, 28, and 17 games in the respective following seasons with the Turin-based outfit.
Setting sail for Como in the 2024 - 2025 season, he quickly asserted himself with 11 outings and a goal to his name. He is currently poised to continue with Como for the forthcoming 2025 - 2026 season.
Apart from club commitments, Vojvoda took his defensive nous to the international stage, representing Kosovo in the Euro Qualifiers 2022 - 2024 with eight starts, and the Nations League 2024 - 2025 with seven starts.
