A female sports reporter has revealed that she became a 'distraction' for some of the Red Star Belgrade players she interviewed.

Katarina Sreckovic has claimed that she was told to leave the pitch a number of times because the players could not concentrate with her around.

"I admit it was a problem at the start but I think they've got used to me now," the Daily Star quotes Sreckovic as saying.

"It was tough though because for a while it seemed as if they might not be able to work with me at all. I was also asked to go away a couple of times because I was a distraction on the pitch, and players complained that they couldn't concentrate."

The 25-year-old is also a graduate in Chinese and literature.
