From the director of Napoli to the national team, Veseli speaks: When Albania
Igli Tare was rumored for the post of sports director of Napoli, but in the last few days, in Italy, they make it certain that the reigning champions of Serie A are close to officializing Giovanni Mana from Juventus in this role. Mana previously worked at Lugano, where Frederik Veseli was a player, who, speaking for "1 football club", said:

"Mana knows Italian football very well. I believe that Napoli will mix young players with experienced ones. I think that in the future they will be able to sell players. When I had him at Lugano we had a friendly relationship. As for the relationship with De Laurentiis, I say that it will be a positive cooperation", says Veseli, who is then asked about the choice of the Albanian National Team, even though he was born in Switzerland.

"It was a very easy choice. My parents are Albanian and I was at Junaitid. The Switzerland U-21 team and the first team didn't call me either. At that moment I received an invitation from Albania. I was in a difficult period with two loans, but when I was playing in Switzerland regularly, Albania called me again and I didn't think twice", recalls the defender.

NEW RULE- Since he played for several years in Italy, Veseli also has a comment about the new rule that was established for Albanian players who can play as locals: "It is a very positive agreement for our players. "Before, they could not enter European football due to restrictions, but now Italy has accepted this agreement, with the hope that the other major leagues will do the same," concluded Veseli.
