Mišo Brečko takes over the new generation of Slovenian talent: two foreign players on the first U-16 national team roster
He has achieved a lot with the cadets, a lot in fact. Mišo Brečko took Slovenia to the European Under-17 Championships this year as a selector, and his now former protégés left more than a good impression in Hungary. A number of the boys who defended Slovenia’s colours at the last Euro have moved on to higher level competitions, and Mišo Brečko will try to build the next success story with a new generation of players.
Mišo Brečko will welcome his new players for the first time on 23 August, when the U-16 national team will gather in Maribor. They will stay there for two days, but this time they will only train. The former Cologne player has included a number of players who have already made a name for themselves in the younger selections, and this year’s gathering will also be attended by two who earn their living abroad.
