Club career
Kullashi was born in Helsinki, Finland, to Kosovar-Albanian parents. She moved to Sweden from Finland when she was five years old,[2] and she grew up in Halmstad.[3] She started playing organised football with Snöstorp Nyhem FF's youth system and moved to AIK in summer 2011. She made her debut for AIK as a 15-year-old, in a Svenska Cupen quarter-final fixture at Umeå IK on 29 March 2015.[4]
She made six appearances in the 2015 Damallsvenskan for relegated AIK, but was given a more central role the following season. In 2016 she scored 15 goals in 20 Elitettan matches and 20 goals in 23 matches across all competitions. In January 2017 she joined English FA WSL club Manchester City on trial, but ultimately re-signed for AIK in time for the 2017 season. In July 2017 she transferred to Damallsvenskan club Eskilstuna United.[5]
On her debut appearance for Eskilstuna United, Kullashi scored two goals in a 4–0 home win over IF Limhamn Bunkeflo. She was praised by teammate Olivia Schough and her new coach for her dribbling abilities.[2]
