The situation at Partizani, Veselinovic: They should take responsibility, no one

Partizan coach Aleksandar Veselinovic spoke to the media on the eve of the match against Apolonia in the Albanian Cup.

The Reds coach revealed that the protocol for this challenge will only include 14 players. Among other things, he said that everyone should live up to the responsibilities of their position.

According to Veselinovic, no one wants the championship title more than he does.

"At this moment we are preparing for the Cup match against Apolonia. The transfer market remains open until the end of January. The history and tradition of the Partizani club has shown that it knows how to react and I believe that by the end of the January transfer market we will react. Today we only have to focus on the match we will play tomorrow.

Domgjoni is certain to be absent, Bintsouka is also ill. We have 14 players for the match protocol, we will complete the group today to carry out the training process with players brought in from the academy. Some of them will be part of the match protocol tomorrow. We are preparing to play against a serious opponent such as Apolonia.

I have had pressure every day, but it is self-pressure. I do not believe that there is anyone more than me who will win the title with Partizan, but there are steps that will be taken. Desire is one thing, but I have expressed before that it must be taken step by step. It seems a bit arrogant to talk about the title part since we have a match tomorrow. Regarding the question that some of the main players have left, this is already a fact since Rrapaj, Cara, Hadroj and Mba are no longer there. Without forgetting Koten, who will not be available for at least a month.

I am one of those people who wants everyone to be responsible for their position. In every organization there are people who are responsible for their positions and it seems unfair to me to interfere in someone else's part. I am not a person who deals with the managerial part to talk to the players. I am a coach who deals only with the field part, with the methodology, planning and programming of the training process, the selection of players. I would very much like you to consider me as a serious man who is turning 55 and has his own thoughts and attitudes. I just try to be fair to everyone ", said Veselinovic.

The Partizani-Apolonia match will be played on Wednesday, starting at 17:00.
