Fidel Ylli

The head of the Albanian Olympic Committee, Fidel Yli, said that sports betting should be reopened, but to be controlled by the state. He said that illegal betting companies should be closed, and those that operate according to the law should be controlled by the state.

" It's a little late meeting, I was in the parliament and I voted to close the betting and it's good that they were closed, but we ask another question, now it's playing more than before and the state has no control, it's playing 20-30 million lek per week, it is a phenomenon that I have said to close, if we close black betting, the state and not the private sector will control it.

There is no country that does not have betting companies, how do we tell a European citizen who wants to play, that we do not have the law, I have taken examples from other laws that with an identity card he cannot play more than 500 euros , today they play with millions and the sport is not getting any money, the Italian Committee with % of the bets, so when European countries have these laws with standards, we are so rich that the private sector can control them ", said Ylli.
