Former Slovenian national team player Tim Matavž, who scored 5 goals in the 1. HNL this season, has not played in the last three matches for HNK Gorica, nor was he in the squad. Many wondered what was happening, but according to reports by Slovenske novice, the experienced striker, aged 35, found himself in serious trouble. The reason? Alleged domestic violence!
As reported by Slovenske novice, Tim Matavž was reported on April 9th “for severe violence allegedly committed against his family within the jurisdiction of the Nova Gorica Police Department.” Slovenske novice unofficially add that Tim Matavž “physically assaulted his wife and allegedly caused her injuries.” He reportedly treated her badly and insulted her, adds the newspaper, which also writes that the experienced striker received a restraining order against approaching his wife and children.
The police confirmed to Slovenske novice that this month they dealt with a suspicion of domestic violence in the area of the Nova Gorica Police Department and issued a restraining order against approaching a specific person. They did not confirm whether it was indeed Tim Matavž.
The 39-time Slovenian international, who scored 11 goals wearing the national team jersey, has had a stellar football career. He started at Gorica, and later played for Groningen, Emmen, PSV Eindhoven, Augsburg, Genoa, Nürnberg, Vitesse, Al Wahda, Bursaspor, and Omonia in Nicosia. He moved to Croatia just over a year ago.
