UEFA again puts Silvinho in charge, the national team with 2 new players for the friendly with Ukraine

The Albanian national team will play a friendly match against Ukraine on March 31 in Valencia. The challenge serves as a test for the red and black team as part of further preparations.

Two players have left the red and black camp. Midfielder Ylber Ramadani has left for family reasons, as he is expecting to become a father. Meanwhile, defender Arlind Ajeti has been forced to return to his club in Turkey due to injury.

If there are no further departures or injuries, coach Silvinho will again be faced with the choice of leaving a player out of the match list. There are currently 24 players available, while the regulations allow for the activation of 23 players.

Absences and possible returns

In the last match against Poland, Jasir Asani, Nazmi Gripshi and Klisman Cake were absent. It is expected that at least two of these names will be in the coach's calculations for the match against Ukraine.
