The adventure of the Albanian national team coach, Silvinjo, may end after the 2026 World Cup, as his contract with the Rossoneri ends then. But whatever his future and career, the Brazilian coach will never forget the experience in our country. He does not hesitate to say that the hospitality and generosity he has encountered in Albania, he has not found in any other country in the world, even in the years when he was a footballer playing among the most famous clubs in the world.
In an interview given to "Bola Quadrada" in his hometown, Silvinjo explained the special way in which he has been treated in these years in Albania, with a very special status, even by unknown people.
" What I have noticed here, and it is something to emphasize, is that I have never been treated so well in any country, I have noticed this even while living here. The Albanian people are very generous, especially with foreigners, it is something that is in their culture. Yes, we are achieving very good, significant results, a second European Championship, now we will play this play-off. I live in the city, but this has never happened to me anywhere else. I have played for big clubs, I have played in countries in the developed world, I have played for the Brazilian national team, I have seen everything, but I have never seen anything like this.
I'm in a restaurant with my wife, who sometimes comes to visit me, and someone sends me typical food without noticing. I tell the waiter "I didn't order it" and the guy says "But it was the table next door, it was him." It's happened a few times at Frankfurt airport with my wife and many times when we want to have lunch at a certain place and there's always a free table for us.
They are very generous, very careful towards foreigners. They said this and I am experiencing it up close, it is true. Never before in my life have I gone to a restaurant and suddenly the bill has been paid. It has happened discreetly, from a distance, they greet with a hand, post a photo. In short, this is a way that encourages me, adds responsibility to do our best every time. It is a national team, you represent a country. So, in short, in the behavior of the Albanian people with foreigners, the generosity is extraordinary , "Silvinjo told the Brazilian media.
