Although his decision in 2018 not to play for the national team offended many compatriots, we must be fair: Kevin Kampl could still have benefited Slovenia, even though he is already 33 years old. But what happened, happened. When the RB Leipzig player made his decision, the situation in the Slovenian national team was much worse than it is now. And Kevin Kampl probably couldn’t have imagined back then that he would someday reach a point of regret.
But Kevin Kampl has now openly admitted that he regrets not being there. Because he won’t be part of Slovenia, because he won’t play in Euro 2024. And that in Germany, where he was born, where he grew up, where he spent most of his career. For him, it would have been one of the highlights of his football career. But instead of being there, he’ll just be an outside observer. And a fan, as he admitted. A fan of Slovenia!
“Of course, I’m a little sad,” admitted Kevin Kampl, teammate of Benjamin Šeško at RB Leipzig, to STA, and added: “Playing in a major tournament with the national team was my goal in football. That’s the only thing I haven’t achieved in my career, so it saddens me a bit. But this summer, I’ll put on my jersey, sit in front of the TV screen, and cheer for Slovenia!”
Born in Solingen, Kevin Kampl has played 28 matches for Slovenia and scored 2 goals, having previously worn the jersey of the Slovenian under-21 national team 17 times.
