The wind of change swept strongly through the streets of Novo mesto on Tuesday. Not only coach Agron Šalja, but also Sašo Udovič bid farewell to Krka. While Šalja departed after just a few months, Sašo Udovič waved goodbye after a long, truly very, very long time. With his departure from the position of sports director, one of the longest periods in Slovenian football came to an end. Udovič, once a top footballer and Slovenian international, bid farewell after 12 years of service in the Dolenjska capital!
“NK Krka and sports director Sašo Udovič have mutually agreed to terminate their cooperation,” Krka was concise in its press release, which, considering all that Sašo Udovič has given to this club, should have been longer… 55-year-old Sašo Udovič told Dolenjski list: “We have parted ways by mutual agreement. I wish the boys and the club all the best in the future. I have spent 12 years here and will always remain a Krka fan.”
Udovič became the sports director of Krka for the first time in 2009, when he appointed Dušan Kosić as his first coach. Later, in 2013, he moved to Olimpija for a few months, where Izet Rastoder entrusted him with the position of sports director. However, the love affair didn’t last long. After leaving Stožice, he took some time off, and in 2017, he returned to Novo mesto.
