Hafizi: Enough with foreigners, we need an Albanian coach!

2022-12-29 14:24:00, Sport CNA

Astrit Hafizi is of the opinion that the time has come for an Albanian coach, even though he "predicts" that a foreigner will once again be in charge of the National Team.

"Responsibilities are avoided with foreigners. They talk less, when things don't go well they download and avoid controversies. The duke also said about Reja that he worked well, but in the end he removed him. Why didn't he keep it when he worked well...?", says the former coach of Albania for "Panorama Sport".

"I'm not saying it either for nationalism or to please my colleagues who are still active", emphasizes Hafizi - I'm saying it because it's more fair that way. Foreigners, with all due respect, but in 20 years only De Biazi managed to go to the European.

Others have taken fourth or fifth place. I am convinced that in 20 years, even an Albanian could have qualified us in a major competition. We are not doing 'science', just look at which coach Macedonia went to the European Championship with...

See what coach Morocco had at the World Cup and how old he was. Regragui was 47 years old... Albanians feel the flag more, feel the responsibility and know the atmosphere that surrounds us best.

Foreigners may have more experience, but in the end they just see it as work, without any great responsibility. Plus, they get hundreds of thousands of euros... An Albanian coach with a salary of 5,000 euros a month would sleep on the field.

So there would be unlimited commitment for the National Team. However, here the red and black ornament has become the property of foreigners, and for that I am sorry", declared Astrit Hafizi.
