The first of their second decision may affect their parents, and the third of their managers, writes Periscope.
These days the topic of players leaving Kosovo's nationals was restored to other nationals, in this case Albania.
Adrion Pajaziti and Medon Berisha were the last two players to leave the national Kosovo to join Albania, with what many reactions there were, writes Periscope.
But besides that, there was also Albanian-born football player Ardon Jashari, who chose to play for Switzerland, not Kosovo.
Last Sunday, he received an invitation from Murat Yakin to join Switzerland for matches in the League of Nations, against Spain on September 24th, and against the Czech Republic after three days.
Who's guilty here: Football player, parents, managers or the Kosovo Football Federation?
Periscop has talked to the former captain of the National of Kosovo, Anel Raskaj who told Kosovo yes even when we were not admitted to FIFA and UEFA.
Raskaj initially said he is not surprised by recent developments, as he says players are now looking at personal interest.
I've been following these latest developments. I'm not much surprised and I've mentioned it before that personal interest is now being seen much more. Normally it's not hygienist by the players to play with both federations, and that's reality.
The former captain also said the Federation should extend the programme and increase professionalism in all age groups.
I think the Federation can only expand its program and plan for football players and it's the choice of person and character to decide who to play for. Parents and managers may also be affected. Also, the Federation should do the job at the maximum and increase professionalism in all age groups and then what players decide is no longer in their hands”, Raskaj said.
We remember that Kosovo will play the last two games of this year's League of Nations edition this month against Northern Ireland in Belfast, on September 24th, and against Cyprus on September 27th at the “Fadil Vokrri” Stadium./Periscopi/
