Tomi Horvat has had a year he will never forget. With Sturm, he first clinched the double Austrian crown, then earned a spot in the Slovenian national team for Euro 2024. This was followed by a historic qualification to the round of 16 in the competition in Germany. Now, the Prekmurje native has also become a father. His daughter Mia was born on Saturday, granting Tomi Horvat permission to leave the national team camp to stand by his beloved partner’s side. However, they will have to wait a bit longer to share their first family moments with little Mia. We all hope just a few more days… Tomi Horvat is already returning to Germany, and on Monday, he will be part of Slovenia’s squad for their historic match against Portugal.
“We are undoubtedly very happy that Mia has come into the world. Congratulations go especially to mom and dad, and I wish her a life of peace and happiness. The gesture we prepared for Tomi at training is completely normal. Regarding everything in our national team, the fact that Tomi is already returning to the camp and will be among the candidates for Monday’s match against Portugal says it all,” revealed Slovenian coach Matjaž Kek at a press conference before the match in Frankfurt.
Congrats to Tomi Horvat at the birth of his daughter Mia! 🎉
