On Tuesday at 20:45 at Riga's "Skonto Stadions", Latvia and Albania will face off in the next Group K match of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
In this match, our national team will be missing a big player, Berat Gjimshiti. The center-back was punished with a yellow card in the 19th minute in the 0-0 draw against Serbia, as he has completed the number of cards that will keep him out of the next match.
Coach Sylvinho has revealed who will be the captain's replacement, with Benfica's Adrian Bajram looking set to join, even though he watched the match against Serbia from the stands.
"Gjimshiti's absence? We have to see everything. Now we have 5 center backs along with Adrian Bajram who is driving me crazy, he is playing very well. He will go to the USA after the match to play with Benfica in the World Cup. We have players and it is good for selection, we will do the training and we will see. We have spent a lot of energy", said Sylvinho after the match.
