Valon Ahmedi (born 7 October 1994) is an Albanian footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Maribor in the Slovenian PrvaLiga. He was also part of the Albania national under-21 team.
Ahmedi was born in Ohrid, modern day Republic of Macedonia, to ethnic Albanian parents and was raised in Castellanza, Italy. He began his career with Kastelbell. He moved to F.C. Südtirol in August 2011 after being spotted by the club's scout and was offered a place in the youth team.
He made his senior debut for Südtirol on 22 December 2012 against Tritium during the 2012–13 season, coming on as an 89th-minute substitute for Alessandro Campo in the 1–1 draw. His next and last senior appearance of the 2012–13 season came on 13 January 2013 against Pavia in a 2–1 loss, where he came on in the 67th minute of the game in place of Alessandro Furlan.
In July 2014 Ahmedi signed with Slovenian PrvaLiga side NK Celje. He made his debut in the opening match of the 2014–15 season against Zavrč playing the full 90-minutes. He was considered as an important player for the team and regularly played for entire matches, and on 1 August 2014 he scored his first goal against Krka in the third round, helping his team to a 3–0 victory. Ahmed had a three months break as he got injured in the start of the 2015 and missed out for two months until May 2015.
He finished his first season at Celje with 20 league appearances, scoring five goals. Celje finished as league runners-up and this made them to secure a place in the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League qualifiers. Ahmedi also played five matches in the 2014–15 Slovenian Football Cup and scored one goal, as Celje finished runners-up losing to the final against Koper.
