The article with misinformation from the Kurir.rs medium was corrected after being handled by hibrid.info (see the corrected article). here and here)
Serbian online media outlet "Kurir.rs" published yesterday (September 7) an article titled "SCANDAL IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: The promotion of "Greater Albania" over the clash of two football TITANS!".
The article included a photo taken on the eve of the Champions League match between Inter Milan and Bayern Munich that took place last night (September 7). In this image, a child is seen near the players making the symbol that Albanians consider the double-headed eagle.
This media outlet, without any facts, claims that this child has provoked for "Greater Albania".
Article published in the Serbian media outlet "Kurir.rs", translated into Albanian:
The derby of the day in the Champions League is being played in Milan, where the two giants of European football, Inter and Bayern, meet.
Unfortunately, instead of footballing skills, political provocation came to the fore.
That is, as the teams together with the referees were standing near the center of the field and next to them were the children who were supposed to promote the new generations of football actors, one of the boys, at the very moment the camera passed in front of him – crossed his arms on his chest, as happened in recent years, the defenders of the idea of the so-called. "Greater Albania".

In this article, this media outlet claims without facts that the eagle shape made by this child is a political provocation and the idea of "Greater Albania".
This aforementioned portal tries to link this claim to the case when footballers of Kosovo origin, Xherdan Shaqiri and Granit Xhaka, made the eagle shape with their hands during the Switzerland – Serbia match in 2018. (see here)
Also, this photograph showing this child has been given a different connotation, calling it a political provocation of the idea of Greater Albania, attempting to link it to the Serbia-Albania match in 2014, when a flag with a map of ethnic Albanian regions, portraits of Ismail Qemali and Isa Boletini and the inscription "AUTOCHTHONOUS" was waved by a drone. (see here)
All of these claims are tendentious by this Serbian portal because the connection is unarguable.
Although the boy seen in the photograph, according to the portal "GazetaBlic.com" is claimed to be Amar Doda from Albania (here), the Serbian newspaper's claims that he made the eagle symbol as a political provocation are tendentious.
