The match between Vellaznimi-Prishtina, live on Supersport Kosovo, a
transmission that started everything. Until that day, Kosovo’s football
was forgotten by all Kosovo media.
This match woke up all media that had ignored football in Kosovo for several years. After this powerful influence, the Kosovo Football Federation had no other way rather than starting a tender for the broadcast of the Reiffeisen Superleague.
In this day, the seriousness of the Kosovo media was clearly seen. RTV21 and another media didn’t offer at all. RTK offered 61.000 EUR, KosovaPress 77.000 EUR and Digiworks 86.000, with VAT.
The offer of Digitalb was 80.000 EUR without VAT, and besides the financial significance, it offered the promotion of the Kosovo Superleague in the channels of the Digitalb platform, producing and broadcasting TV spots that could be converted into a value of 50.000 EUR, together with the organization of a spectacular tour between the Kosovo and Albanian clubs.
The federation decided that the tender should be repeated. Digitalb withdrew, since it is the moral, legal and financial winner of the 16 September tender.
With this decision, the Federation showed lack of seriousness, confusion and lets us believe that it has fallen under political pressure. The repeated tender shows the insecurity and corruption possibilities within the federation, a lack of professionalism and the process remained the same. The federation remained without status and still small. This process showed that their goal was not the promotion of the league, but an unfair profit from it.
