Injury to Dan Shuku and Albion Rahmani: “When you go to football, you have to have a strong heart”

The doctors’ verdict turned out to be more serious than the residents of Julesti expected. The president of “Rapid” Dan Shuku explained that the attacker will be brought to the country as soon as possible to begin his rehabilitation.

“This is obviously bad news for us. I hope things aren’t as bad as they seemed last night. When I heard… You have to have a strong heart when you go to football because there are all kinds of nasty surprises when you least expect them.

As we are in constant contact with the player’s agent tonight, Rahmani is going home, we will take all the necessary steps to get him to Bucharest tonight. If necessary, we will also send him a private jet.

Time is of the essence. Let’s get him to Bucharest as soon as possible, see what he’s got and start rebuilding. It takes 12 hours to drive from Pristina to Bucharest. There is no question of him coming by car.

That is why I am telling you that we will find any solution to put him on a plane and bring him to Bucharest. Because these things are of great importance, and the time to solve them is very short” – Dan Sukuquoted by Fanatik.
