Great news. Rashica has decided to play for Kosovo(very soon it will be made public). Huge blessing in disguise, easily the most overrated talent around.

well these news just vanish any chance Albania might have had to qualify for the wc18.

Ja qifsha nanen atij de biazit

I would never have done it, but I understand why he did it. He was one - if not - the best Albanian footballers last year, but still he wasn't included in the team for the Euros. Fucking De Biasi.

PS. I like how he calls it a 'perfaqesuese' and not a 'kombtare'. That's a positive in all this negative shit.

You cannot go lower than 0% chance

That was easily one of the best statements I've read by Albanian footballers. He's handled the decision to represent Kosova very well and I don't blame him at all. Yeah it sucks that he was not called up for the Euros but in hindsight i don't think it was the wrong decision by GDB. Leaving out Xhimshit for Veseli was the biggest travesty.

From a practical standpoint it is a good decision as I can imagine Kosova suprassing Albanin very soon in football. I mean look at our NT talent pool and it is very obvious that Kosova has contributed immensely and 100% of the talents goring forward will be representing Kosova. Rashica is just the beginning and the floodgates will now open.

Keep in mind that if Rashica was called up to the Euros he would've been 100% locked only for Albania because he had Kosovar citizenship at that time.

Which goes to show you how much De Biasi values Rashica's talent. He could've had him but decided to let him go for nothing.

Means a lot from a man who has Andi Lila as his first pick every time he chooses who'll start for us.

Taulant Xhaka will also switch to Kosovo.

As long as Mavraj and Ajeti stay for Albania I think we good.
