"He won't come to us, it's that simple", Rraklli to Brajan Gruda: Let's not bow down to him as a national team

Altin Rraklli spoke about the case of football player Brajan Gruda. The Albanian legend has also made a call to fans and the Albanian Football Federation not to focus all their energy on such cases of players who do not want to play for our national team, but have been waiting for another option for years.

" I do not get into the personal affairs of the player or Brajan Gruda's family. I have heard their statements and Brajan's, who has his mind set on Germany. I think Albania should have its own personality, we have created it and we should keep it."

Albania should see and take Albanian players, Gruda is Albanian, but when he says that he doesn't care about Albania and wants Germany, we greatly diminish our personality as a Federation, as football and as a nation to humble ourselves and ask people who don't want to play for us to play for us. It's a personal decision and we have to respect it, it's simple ," Rraklli said on "A2CNN".
