It wasn’t the first time, as some media outlets report; it was the first time in a slightly more serious friendly match. The talented Lovro Golič, who was given a chance in the senior team of Roma last summer by the former coach Jose Mourinho (the Slovenian teenager came on for Llorente in the 49th minute against Boreale), started the match on Wednesday in Riyadh, where the Romans faced Al Shabab and won 2-1.
The 17-year-old Slovenian played in the first half in Saudi Arabia and then went to the reserve bench. His performance raised quite a few eyebrows, and the newspaper Il Messaggero decided to present Slovenian in more detail to its readers after the game.
“Lovro Golič is a central defender. He is 195 centimeters tall, right-footed, and has enough strength to withstand physical duels with opponents, especially aerial duels. Due to his height, he is very dangerous in the penalty area, both in his own and the opponent’s, where he can turn corner kicks and free kicks into dangerous actions,” Il Messaggero wrote about the former member of Domžale.
Lovro Golič was not the only Slovenian taken to Saudi Arabia by the new coach of Roma, Daniele De Rossi; 17-year-old forward Luka Mlakar also earned a spot on the plane, making a name for himself with goals in the Primavera competition this season.
