As if the injuries to Broja and Daku were not enough, Sylvinho lost the captaincy for the first two Nations League challenges.
Berat Gjimshit's injury was without a doubt the most bitter news in this first post-"Euro2024" gathering. The red-and-black "Dam" suffered a first-degree pull in his right thigh during a training session, causing him to immediately "park" in the infirmary.
Gjimshiti first underwent some examinations in Tirana, but then traveled to Bergamo for a more specialized visit. Gjimshit's injury is not only a concern for Albania, but this was also bitter news for coach Gasperini as the central defender thus misses the first challenge after the resumption of Serie A, the one against Fiorentina scheduled to take place on September 15 .
Not only that, Gjimshiti is also in strong doubt for the first challenge in the Champions League, the one against Arsenal on September 19.
