Interviewed today before the match against Liechtenstein, Ohrid-born football player but raised in Krchova, shows that he is very happy that he is part of the national red, closing Macedonia's doors forever.

Ahmed shows that he has made a heart choice, and it is better for you to play only one match with Albania than always to be a title in Macedonia.

WALON AHMEDI
For an invitation from the Albanian National before the match with Macedonia?

I was born in Ohrid, but I've always lived in Krcove. I'm so happy to be here, since I've been part of the National Age.
This National calling is a dream come true for me. To be the only Albanian from Macedonia to be part of the nationals for me is honour and satisfaction”.

What's it like to play Latiff's hand again, after age experience?
I played with Latif, but I know Grezda, that I played a friend with U-21. He's a very good player and I feel very good with him”

Has it felt pressure and was there an invitation from Macedonia?
Never. Frankly, I have had many friends and many people who have told me to go to Macedonia that it is the lowest level. They said you sure you wanna play. But I said I'd feel more proud if I played just one game with the national red one than any match in Macedonia. I've made my choice with my heart, and I'm so happy to be here”

For the comment Panucci made on his abilities?
I don't know, just the coach. The first call was to congratulate me on the success I'm making at the club and now I'm with the National. I'm a general technical player, I'm a fantasy, I play at the club like 10. I hope with the qualities I have to help a lot of nationals, I can't wait to wear a red shirt”.

How's group management with veterans?
I knew some people, it wasn't my problem to feel good on the team. I was also well received by those I did not know. The invitation came at the best moment of my career. Three days ago I qualified with the club at the Champions League, and then the invitation came. It's a magic moment for me, I hope it's going to be this way”

About the Chiquillesh incident, and how does the group experience Panucci's rules?
And I think it's one that requires a lot of discipline. This can only do the group well, since without discipline it doesn't get anywhere, it's very positive that I have this feeling of training and should respect its rules”.

If he's ready to accept the bench?
I'm very happy, I'm proud to be here, and every minute the coach gives me, I'll be ready to be”

What are the goals for the next national games?
Any match must be taken seriously that it will not be easy. We play home, we have our fan in front of us, so we're going to do our best to win”.

How did they experience the moment the invitation arrived at the club?
They thought it was the moment I was playing well and they thought the invitation was coming. They enjoyed it because it was important to me”.

Do you name it a special match to Macedonia?
No, because I am Albanian, I feel Albanian. For me it's gonna be a normal fight like all the other”.
