Slovenia is just one point away from Euro 2024 and Jaka Bijol will play a key role in the last two qualification matches. The Korošec player has developed into an outstanding defender who is impressing in Serie A. Experts predict that his move to one of Europe’s giants is only a matter of time. Napoli, Inter, AC Milan and others have reportedly been interested in him in the past.
But Jaka Bijol is not only highly regarded by experts and the public, but also by his teammates from Udinese. This was confirmed by Bijol’s compatriot Sandi Lovrić, who had a few words of praise for both his club and national team teammate.
“It’s not strong, but it’s very strong!” Sandi Lovrić said of the former CSKA Moscow player, before continuing.Jaka is a great actor and a very good person. When we were in trouble, we knew he was there in defence, protecting us and preventing us from scoring. I am happy with what he is doing, so he must continue. Also in the light of the fact that Slovenia is now really close to the European Championship…”
It is interesting to note that Jaka Bijol, as was revealed by his father, was also a very talented … alpine skier in his youth! It’s lucky he chose to play football instead…
