The best basketball player in the country, Drilon Hajrizi, is going through a challenging period. He had health problems and underwent an operation. It has been several weeks since the leader of Trepca has not trained with the Mitrovica team due to a serious ear infection.
The operation was successful, while Hajrizi is expected to miss a period from the Kosovar gyms. He is one of the best basketball players that Kosovo has ever had.
On Monday, the Kosovo Basketball Federation wished Hajrizi a speedy recovery. He is one of the most important representatives of Kosovo. In the last edition, he led Trepca to victory in all Kosovar basketball competitions. Trepça won the champion title, the Kosovo Cup, the Super Cup and the Unique League, developed in the form of a tournament.
33-year-old Hajrizi has also had a successful career at Peja and Sigal Prishtina. He also played in Japan as well as in the Union of Prizren. From 2020, he is again at Trepça, where earlier he was made official as the captain of the team.
"The Basketball Federation of Kosovo wishes a speedy recovery to the basketball player of Kosovo, Drilon Hajrizi. The chairman of FBK, Arben Fetahu and the Executive Board of FBK, believe that Hajrizi will return to the court as soon as possible, where he belongs and where he has made a great contribution to Kosovo basketball. Driloni has played regularly for Kosovo, since the admission to FIBA until the last matches. The mitrovica basketball player has 29 matches with 'Dardans', always fighting for every ball and being among the most distinguished. He was declared the best basketball player for 2023 by the Basketball Federation of Kosovo, while in his career he has won many individual and team awards. We are waiting for Drila on a stronger floor than ever", FBK wrote.
