“We have brought the best Slovenian coach,” said Igor Barišić, Director of the Slovenian Football Association, at the press conference where Zoran Zeljković was introduced.

. Goran Boromisa, the sporting director of the current Slovenian champions , added that the Dragons were looking for a coach who knows the Slovenian league and who can work with young players.“He has won a trophy, he has results and he is a proven name in Slovenian football,” added Goran Boromisa.
Igor Barišić also revealed that Zoran Zeljković was already a target of Olimpija a year ago, before the arrival of Spanish expert Alberto Riera. But at the time, Olimpija failed to reach an agreement with
Koper
.
“A year ago, when we first talked about Zoran Zeljkovic – this was before Albert Riera arrived – the President of Koper demanded an abnormal compensation. He asked absolutely too much for us, the amount was not realistic for the Slovenian league. Now everything has ‘clicked’ and I have to thank again Koper, the President Ante Guberc and the Sports Director Ivico Guberc. They were all very correct. I think we are all happy: they are happy and so are we. I am convinced that we have taken the right step,” said Igor Barišić, Director of the Stožice club.
