The Slovenian U17 national team, led by Muamer Vugdalić, will soon gather again for the first highlight of the year. And we hope it won’t be the last either. The selected team, aged 17, will start the decisive round of qualifications for the European Championship in just over a week. In the tournament in Austria, Slovenia’s opponents will include the hosts, Spain, and Norway. The task will undoubtedly be extremely challenging, and the goal will be achieved if Slovenia finishes either first or as the best second-placed team.
“I believe we have chosen the right boys. The decision was not easy, as there is strong competition among the players in this generation, and the number of travelers to the elite round is limited. At this moment, the selected players are in optimal condition to attempt to achieve our goal,” said Muamer Vugdalić to the NZS website. He revealed the list of players he will take across the northern border on Monday.
One of Slovenia’s main assets will undoubtedly be David Pejičić, who has already debuted for Udinese‘s first team. The Slovenian colors will also be defended by Sven Šunta, Tai Žnuderl, Arman Durmiši, Mark Kerin, Benjamin Matičič, Niko Osterc, Dominik Drobnič, Mateo Aćimović, and others. Slovenia will play its first match on March 20th against Austria. Three days later, Spain will be the opponent, and the tournament will conclude with a match against Norway on March 26th.
