Even though there hasn’t been much talk about him lately, it doesn’t mean that Domen Gril has bid farewell to football. Far from it. The young goalkeeper from Slovenia is making a name for himself in Portugal, where he is performing well in the local second division, especially with his hands. The former young representative of Slovenia is currently a member of the club Academico Viseu. An indication of his skills is the fact that he was chosen as the best goalkeeper for the month of January in the Sabseg league.
In the current season, Domen Gril has participated in 23 matches in the second Portuguese league, conceding only 23 goals. Additionally, he managed to keep a clean sheet eight times. In January, he conceded only two goals, and his team did not lose a single match during that time. Thanks in part to the Slovenian goalkeeper, Academica is in a respectable seventh place on the league table.
“Opposing teams have very few shots on our goal, so I don’t have much work. The key is the team, the fact that we changed our attitude as a whole helped me achieve several games without conceding a goal,” said Domen Gril upon receiving the award. He played domestically for Bistrica and Bravo before joining Academico.
Domen Gril, currently ranking third in the number of games without conceding a goal in the second Portuguese league, signed with Academica in August 2021. Before that, he also showcased his skills in Germany, where he was a member of Hoffenheim’s second team. It’s worth noting that he is contractually tied to his Portuguese club until June 2026.
