Not long ago, a rumor stirred up quite a bit of dust in Slovenian football that Zoran Zeljković could return to Koper very quickly after his departure from Olimpija. All well and good, but Koper already has a coach. Oliver Bogatinov responded quite angrily to the media reports, and if he was worried for a moment, that worry was unnecessary. Ante Guberac made it clear: Oliver Bogatinov remains the coach of Koper.

“There is absolutely no doubt. The team will be led by Oliver Bogatinov next season. His task was to stabilize the team, and he succeeded. The team looked much, much better under his leadership,” Ante Guberac emphasized to Sportklub.

As usual, Ante Guberac also blamed the referees for Koper’s troubles: “If it weren’t for the referees’ ‘massacre,’ we would have finished fourth, which, given the investments of Celje, Maribor, and Olimpija, is a success. As long as these clubs invest such amounts of money, fourth place is a success. Unfortunately, we didn’t achieve that; fifth place is, of course, not enough for us. Next season, we want to do better. Why would I change the coach who would have finished fourth without the referees’ ‘massacre’?”
