"Martini has a personal grudge, he attempted to interfere", Hygerta

The clash between coach Edi Martini and moderator Hygerta Sako has reached another level, now including the Vllaznia club.

After the coach's accusations of inappropriate language in the studio, the Shkodran club has threatened legal action against the presenter, demanding a public apology for the labels against their coach.

However, Sako has reacted harshly on social media, claiming that all the tension stems from a personal grudge of Martin's dating back to 2021.

According to her, the coach is upset about the fact that at that time the "Coach of the Year" trophy on RTSH was awarded to Thomas Brdaric and not to him. The moderator denied any accusations of racism, describing Martin's behavior as professional arrogance and repeated lack of ethics. She invited the Vllaznia club to deal with the public education of its coach before making statements to journalists.

HYGERTA SAKO'S REACTION:

I never wanted to make a statement today, but given the unethical and offensive statements made against me, I feel it is necessary to clarify not only to the public but also to Vllaznia fans and its presidency that:

This whole situation stemmed from a personal grudge between Edi Martin and me that dates back to 2021 when as Rtsh Sport we organized "The Best of the Year". In a transparent vote by 7 leading television studio specialists, among them honorable names such as Shkelqim Muca, Sulejman Starova, Astrit Hafizi, Redi Jupi, etc., 4 of them voted for the best coach of the year for that edition's Vllaznia coach, Thomas Brdaric, and 3 of them for Edi Martin. I'm not talking about the interventions that Martin and people close to him undertook to change the vote and give him the trophy. Martini thinks that I gave the trophy while I was simply a moderator and that I made the voting formula public to the media. Since then, this gentleman has not spared insults towards me to my colleagues every time he has met them. And yet I did not react but continued to treat him with respect in every television appearance, maintaining professional ethics. So, dear fans, Martin's personal anger with me is precisely because a Vllaznia coach was deservedly appreciated and I will not go further by reminding you of the way he celebrated when he took the title away from Vllaznia in 2021!

To come to the event of the last few days. After the victory with Partizan he started the interview with an unjustifiable irony which I passed over calmly without commenting further. In the end I addressed him with a professional question which he answered with arrogance and no professionalism at all. Martini for personal grudges cannot behave unethically with journalists and then feel insulted. Let's not forget that we are talking about a coach who has been punished 3 times by the Disciplinary Commission for ugly and unsportsmanlike behavior.

I love Shkodran and Vllaznia, for all the emotions it gives to football as the cradle of football and dozens of talents.

But, before KF Vllaznia makes hasty statements towards a journalist who for 12 years has done her utmost to give this team the values ??it deserves, let her deal with her coach to regulate her public behavior!

With respect, Hygerta Sako
