Albanian midfielder Jahmir Hyka completes move to San Jose Earthquakes

A day after hinting that they had one more player signing forthcoming, the San Jose Earthquakes announced that the transfer of Albanian midfielder Jahmir Hyka from FC Luzern was official. The 28 year old Albanian international will join the rest of the team at their preseason training camp in Arizona.

"Hyka brings an element of surprise to any team and to any match," said Earthquakes general manager Jesse Fioranelli in a statement.
