Silvinjo reveals the three young players he is following to invite to the National Team

Albania beat Poland in September to top the group. Now, mathematically, it needs 5 more points in the three remaining games in the qualifying group E of Euro-2024 to ensure participation in the final stage of the European Championship. But next is the duel with the Czech Republic, the most difficult team in the group. A victory with the Czechs on October 12 would bring us closer to that goal. Meanwhile, the coach of the National Team, the Brazilian Silvinho, has warned that he will refresh his team with new players for the next matches. After being reinforced with Arbnor Mujë and Mirlind Daku, the Brazilian coach has announced new arrivals to the Reds, above all with players from the Albanian championship. Silvinho, who is doing a miracle with the "Eagles" in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, in an interview for "Euroneës Albania" he revealed that he will invite players such as Arinaldo Rrapaj and Andi Hadroj from Partizani or even Redi Kasa, former footballer of Egnatia, recently loaned to Olimpija of Ljubljana. "We follow them closely, Rrapaj, Hadroj, but also Redi Kasa, we are watching," said Silvinjo.

The road to Europe

The Albanian national team is going through a golden period, where they are separated by only 3 matches from qualifying for the 2024 European Championship. Coach Silvinjo, who has restored harmony in the team, has a great credit for this. In an interview for "Euronews Albania", the Brazilian confessed his journey to the Reds and Blacks, while he dwelled on several issues, among them that of Broja. Silvinho has claimed that he is closely following the situation of the Chelsea striker. "We are following Broja closely, he is very close to being ready, but not at his 100%. In this way, we don't want a problem with either the footballer or the club, if he is ready, we will invite him", said coach Silvinjo. Despite his absence, the group is going through a good form, while they have maximum evaluation from the technician. "To tell you the truth, all footballers are very good. The ones who surprised me the most are those who played against Poland for the first time. The spirit of the competition and the hunger for victory helps them at such levels", answered Silvinjo. The good form that Albania is going through, means that Silvinjo is in the center of attention. Wherever he goes, the citizens greet him, but do not hesitate to give him opinions. "It happens all over the world to have involvement, it is a very passionate sport. Everywhere you go, people are talking and giving opinions. President Duka has never interfered, he is a professional", said Silvinjo. This has helped him learn the Albanian language slowly. "Good morning, goodbye, good night", are some of the words he has learned so far. Further, the technician stopped at the "Air Albania" stadium, which is a modern facility. "The stadium is in fantastic condition and it is quite good to play challenges there". In conclusion, a message for the red and black fans, who were more than 23 thousand in the match against Poland. "From the first day I said, we will not lack spirit, heart and desire on the field, we will do our best". Albania will return to action against the Czech Republic at home on October 12, then face Moldova in the transfer on November 17, to conclude the qualifying phase with the Faroe Islands in Tirana.
