Josip Iličić is one of those footballers who represented Slovenia at Euro 2024. The star of Maribor played in two matches and was one of the biggest unlucky ones in the last match – Josip Iličić missed a penalty in the round of 16 of the European Championship against Portugal. However, the 36-year-old will not have much time to lament his fate, as he will soon have to return to the pitch.
As Maribor announced, Josip Iličić will have only a week off after returning from Germany. By Tuesday, the former player of Palermo, Fiorentina, and Atalanta will join his teammates from the Slovenian first league team.
“We know that he played a match against Portugal on Monday and needs a short rest, mainly for a mental break. We have planned a schedule that would best suit Josip and the club. We agreed that he would join us on Tuesday, July 9th,” said Maribor’s coach Ante Šimundža for the club’s website.
