Slovenian national football team starts its journey at Euro 2024 on Sunday, where goals will be needed for any noteworthy achievement. Each goal scorer will mark his first on the big stage, as none have previous experience at major tournaments. However, only a few can become Slovenia’s youngest goal scorer in the history of major tournaments.
Currently holding this title is Valter Birsa, who scored against USA in the 2010 World Cup, leaving Tim Howard practically helpless, at 23 years old.
It’s quite clear that only three players from the current squad can surpass this achievement. If Benjamin Šeško scores, he will become Slovenia’s youngest goal scorer at major tournaments at 21 years old. However, if the RB Leipzig member in Germany fails to score, Žan Vipotnik or debutant in the national team Adrian Zeljković could claim the title.
