The new sports law deals specifically with the issue of managing sports facilities in our country. So, we have agreed within the government and with the Minister of Finance that we aim to secure funds from other countries and from alternative sources to more easily cover the cost of building the national stadium of Kosovo. 'The cost will be large because we are talking about the stadium with the largest capacity, I believe, in Kosovo and in this sense we will also look for other sources of financing. This is how we argued our vision when we submitted our candidacy,' Çeku emphasized.Īccording to Ček, the cost for the construction of the national stadium will be very high and for this they are also seeking funds from other countries.

Yes, always making sure these new builds don't just serve games. Both football and athletics are very important sports within the Mediterranean Games and we must ensure that we will have adequate solutions for these. 'Yes, it is a specific request of theirs that is especially related to two main ceremonies, the opening and the closing, this is very important, but not only. 'With Suharek and our champion and internationally successful team, the Balkans, discussions have already intensified with the mayor of the municipality to determine the location,' said Çeku.Īs for the national stadium, the first MKRS revealed that its construction was a specific request of the International Committee of the Mediterranean Games. To continue with other local stadiums, there is the Pozharan stadium in Viti, there is the city stadium in Malishevë which we are co-financing with the municipality and it is a project that is being realized and the operator's promise is that the construction will be completed by the end of the year of the stadium in Malishevë and is fully functional at the service of athletes. There, too, we are looking at the possibility of financial support for the municipality to finish this stadium as soon as possible. In Drenas, the construction of the Drenas stadium is ongoing.

'In Shtime, the procedure for contracting the operator that will do the renovation of the city stadium in Shtime has started, while we will be the same with the new stadium in Rahovec. With 'Pëparim Thaçi' in Prizren, we have completed one phase and now only the last phase remains, which makes the city stadium 'Pëpparim Thaçi' fully functional in Prizren', explained Çeku. The renovation of the city stadium in Gjakova, which is a project in which the Municipality of Gjakova also contributes. Even there, the Ministry has contracted an operator who is doing the feasibility study, that is, to determine the location as a first step and when the location is determined, it will draw up the implementation project for the new Ferizaj stadium. In Ferizaj, the issue is a bit more specific, the city of Ferizaj does not have a decent stadium. In Peja, we are going with the total renovation of the city stadium 'Shani Haxhiislami'.

In addition, we have started with the procedures for the construction of the new stadium in Bërnica, in Pristina, it will be an auxiliary stadium for the needs of the clubs of the capital of Kosovo.

'As an obligation in relation to the Mediterranean Games, we have committed to the construction of the national stadium of Kosovo and this stadium will already pass the stage of a study and a master plan for all the games where the location and capacity are determined for the national stadium of the Republic of Kosovo.
