“In Pogradec, let the best team come, I sign for the 3 points. Skënderbeu’s best attack versus our best defense,” said Vangjel Zguro, Pogradeci’s captain, doing what he does best—firing up the fans.


The defender may not have extraordinary skills, but he is a simple and hardworking player. He gives his all on the field, sometimes—or often—letting emotions take over despite the years.


For his own fans, he remains beloved; for rival supporters, a prime target for criticism. This happened during his stints with Skënderbeu, Partizani, Kukësi, Kamza, and even Bylis.


The 32-year-old has moved through many teams due to his fiery character. He even tried an experience in the U.S., holding the necessary documents, but his love for football outweighed comfort.


He could not stay away from the teasing and real clashes of football fans, not “soccer” enthusiasts.


Skënderbeu-Pogradeci. Today, he faces the derby against his former team, Skënderbeu, while Pogradeci has big ambitions and the captain has a mission.
