Former Slovenia Under-21 selector Primož Gliha advises football players: after 21. mobile phones should no longer be used for an hour
With the start of the new week, the attention of the European football public has once again turned to the national team. The Kosovo national team, led by a Slovenian, will also be at work. Primož Gliha will lead his charges in the matches against Andorra and Israel; the latter has not yet been eliminated, although it is not impossible that it will be. Why? Clearly: because of the turmoil in the Middle East. Before his national team commitments, Primož Gliha was a guest on Kosovo’s state television, where he spoke about a wide range of topics. He also touched on the use of mobile phones for football players.
Primož Gliha believes that the use of mobile phones should be restricted, especially in the evening. Former Slovenian national youth team selector, who has also proved himself as a coach Olimpija, Ptuj Drava, Gorica Mura and Koper, believes that young people should put down their phones after 21. hours.
“After this hour, a professional footballer should rest, because proper sleep is the foundation of success in sport. When I was leading the young Slovenian national team, I also enforced this, the boys were much more focused. They beat the world champions Serbians, won in Switzerland, and remained unbeaten against Portugal, England (twice) and France,” says Primož Gliha, who celebrated his 55th birthday on Sunday.
