Currently injured Jaka Bijol began the year 2024 in the best possible way – with a special recognition that further testifies to the significant mark he has already left at Udinese. Fans of this Italian top-flight team awarded him the most votes in the Zebretta d’Oro poll, making the Slovenian international the chosen favorite or best player of Udinese in 2023.
Jaka Bijol succeeded experienced teammate Marco Silvestri on the throne, the goalkeeper of Udinese, who received the most votes in the poll for 2022.
The award, given by the Udinese supporters’ association and the newspaper Messaggero Veneto, has been presented for twenty-one consecutive years. Jaka Bijol becomes only the fourth defender to win this accolade, following the footsteps of legendary Argentine Nestor Sensini, the winner of the very first poll, Dušan Basti, and Bram Nuytinck.
