Ato He has announced that he will make a memory at FIFA and request damages, in the case of Kosovar striker Mevlan Zeka (31 years old), disappeared from the team. The Kosovar's businessman explained the player's situation.
His case Mevlan Zeka was presented yesterday, exclusively, by gsp.ro.
Zeka was transferred by UTA to this Mercato from the FC Suhareka band, where the previous season (22 goals) had been. The Kosovar striker spent with his new team only a few days in the Slovenia canton, then returned home and returned to Arad, invoking personal problems.
Mevlan Zeka's businessman: “His wife, Gentiana, did some investigations and was discovered with stomach cancer”
Arjanit Kuqki, the player's businessman, explained, exclusively for GSP.ro, the situation of the footballer he represents. “I saw everything that was written through the Romanian press, but the truth is that Mevlan is really in a very difficult situation. While he was with UTA in Slovenia, his wife, Gentiana, did some investigations and was discovered with stomach cancer.
He didn't tell her immediately, just not to worry. Because it was Mevlan's first transfer abroad, he knew how much he wanted to get to UTA, where he would have to win much better than in Kosovo. But after returning from the cantonment, Mevlan found out and that's why he left home. He had to be next to his family, ”said Arjanit Kuqki.

Zeka's businessman: “He's the family's pillar, he has to be home every day!”
Kuqki continued: “Mevlan has no father, and his brother is established in Switzerland. In Kosovo he is, he is the pillar of the family, the one who also provides for his wife, their 5 -year -old son, but also for his mother, who is also old.
The UTA club knows about his situation and offered to be careful that his wife has all the necessary medical assistance if Mevlan returns to Arad.
Only everything is very complicated. His wife has already started treatment, it is not transportable, plus it is the problem with the visa, which is given hard and only for 90 days, after which you take it from the end.
Gentiana is already under the care of a doctor there, it would be difficult to come to Romania and change the doctors, who probably have another kind of approaches in such cases.
And Mevlan really has to stay with her daily, the child, who is very young. He is not simple either, he wanted to play for his new team. But it is blocked in this situation. We kept in touch with UTA. We even offered to pay the expenses for Mevlan's days in the Slovenia cantonment. He came free of contract and has no claims, he does not want to be paid, he only wants to be with the family. “
Arjanit Kuqki: “We are not at war with UTA, we accept whatever decide!”
Representative of the business company that brought Albion Rrahmani, Ermal Krasniqi and, more recently, Drilon Hazrollaj, Arjanit Kuqi firmly that “argues that”Not to mention Mevlan to train with his former team, as I saw he was writing. He has not done any day of preparation since he returned home.
He dedicates his wife all the time. He is 31 years old, is a footballer and does not know how to do something else. In the future, if the situation improves, it is possible to play, but only in Kosovo, so that it can be at home every day. Salaries are lower by at least 50% in Kosovo compared to Romania.
But it would do it only to be able to support their family. We are not at war with UTA, we understand if they want to go to FIFA, it's their right. But Mevlan is willing to endure whatever will be decided.
It is not as if it had any other offer, better, and now they are looking for reasons to break away from UTA. We are serious, we have brought very good players to Romania. But in the case of Mevlan, it is something beyond football, it's about life, about family! ”, The striker's businessman concluded.
