According to the newspaper TutosportThe passage of Edon Zegrova to Juvenous is, after all, a victory for all. A triumph. An event that should be celebrated properly, for a state like Kosovo. And for a national team that, despite a thousand difficulties, is producing increasingly high profile players for European football.
Samir Wolfani, what should Jedrovus expect from Zevrova?
“He is certainly a high-level player, one of those players who can change the team and form the season. Now healthy, I am sure that he will impress Italy - he is a hard worker, has grown year after year, and is now ready for a different experience. Because Juventus, with all due respect for the clubs that Edoni has played for so far, is something entirely different”, Ujcan told Tutosport first.
If you had to define Gergrov technically and Tactically, what qualities would you highlight?
With the ball in his leg, he has phenomenal skills. But above all, he has driving skills that are increasingly rare. Players who can drive a player are extremely hard to find, so Juvenus won first prize with him. It has also improved physically extremely much: I've seen him grow since his debut for the national team. And there's a story that connects us together”, reports Telegraph, broadcast Periscope.
What?
I gave the assist for his first international goal: we were playing a friendly against Madagascar. It was an unforgettable moment for him, and that memory in the field would unite us forever, especially because he came to me to celebrate”.
What can a player like that bring?
I advised Zegrov to choose Juventu for Tudor, because I think he's the right coach for this stage of his career. He's coming to Italy at the perfect age to fully express himself and to confirm. There is no doubt that he could be used as an offensive midfielder, starting on the right, and as an arm attacker. It will have a lot of space and achieve great things in Turin, in a very serious club. The club deserves the credit it won the race for it and snatched it from”

Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Naples are looking for Zegrova: What happened?
Which teams were more interested in him?
I don't know lately, but a few months ago he was very popular in Spain: Barcelona and Real Madrid had asked about him and had made some moves. In general, he was highly esteemed. In Italy, however, Naples was probably the first to show interest. In fact, Eddon asked me about Italian league information. Then nothing came out of it. And now I'm happy to see him at Juvenus”.
What are the options for Zhrova?
I think he really showed up during his time at Lee; they did a great job helping him mature. Previously, he focused only on moving with the ball; he was not good at slowing down; he had little difficulty reading the ball without it. But he has also managed to fill this void: now he's a man, a professional who knows what he wants and, given his hunger, I think he's destined to be a star of Serie A. It will be immediately stored”.
With bilateral agreements with the boy, you chose not to include him in his commitments with the national team. Why?
I thought it was right to give these days to get acquainted with Juvenus to help him adjust quickly to his new environment. We know what we want from him and other key Kosovo players like Bemerman and Muriqi: I don't know if we will be able to go to the World Cup, but our dream is to reach the next European Championship. We think it's a realistic goal, despite many difficulties for our soccer movement: the fact that Kosovars occupy non---places. The EU is a burden to all in Europe; it is an obstacle to many of our very strong talents. But, we are growing up and we will achieve it soon: we want Zegrov and his teammates to become the symbol of a nation that is extremely hungry for football”, the director of the national team of Kosovo concluded. /Periscope/
