Sunderland AFC midfielder Granit Xhaka has reportedly found himself at the centre of online speculation surrounding his marriage to Leonita Lekaj.

Claims circulating online suggest that the couple could be facing difficulties in their relationship, with some posts alleging that Xhaka may be considering legal separation. However, there is currently no reliable public confirmation that Xhaka has filed for divorce, nor is there verified evidence supporting allegations of infidelity.

Xhaka and Leonita have been together since 2015 and married in 2017. They have three daughters together. Recent 2026 profiles continue to describe Leonita as Xhaka’s wife and document their family life.

The midfielder has also remained a major figure at Sunderland. In July 2026, Sky Sports reported that Sunderland had rejected an £8 million bid from Chelsea and that Xhaka had reaffirmed his commitment to the club.

For now, the alleged divorce and cheating claims remain unverified, and no credible source has established that Leonita was involved romantically with another person.
