Eros Grezda surely has no future under Steven Gerrard at Rangers.
Every time Eros Grezda hits the headlines, it’s usually not for a good reason.
And the forgotten Rangers winger has once again found himself in hot water – and at the centre of a very public row with his manager.
Fear not Gers fans, it isn’t Steven Gerrard this time but Edy Reja who has been left rather unimpressed by a player who, believe it or not, cost £2 million just over a year ago when he moved to Ibrox from NK Osijek.
Grezda stormed out of the Albania camp in July during a summer international break and former Lazio coach Reja has made it clear why the seldom-seen attacker hasn’t been seen since – at least for his country.
“In the case of Eros Grezda, I’m sorry what’s happened with him because he was a player with great potential, but he couldn’t accept some decisions made. We invited him along, but he decided he could not accept my invitation to the squad,” Reja said in quotes reported by the Daily Record.
“My priority is Albania. And there is no individual bigger than the country.”
You don’t have to read between the lines to figure out that Reja has been left far from enamoured by Grezda’s attitude. The player himself hit back of course, claiming that he wasn’t called up for the November games, as Reja had stated, and would jump at the chance to wear the double-headed eagle on his chest once more.
But, just two months after the spitting scandal which represented a new low for one of Rangers’ worst signings of the modern era, this is another incident Grezda would surely rather have avoided.
