Luka Božičković is celebrating his 21st birthday today, but he doesn’t have too many reasons for joy and satisfaction. The talented midfielder, who we first got to know in Slovenia wearing the jersey of Maribor, has been one of the better players for Nafte this season, but he has missed out on playing for the young national team of Bosnia and Herzegovina due to an injury.
Luka Božičković had to leave the last league match of the Lendava team before the national team break after just about 40 minutes. Nafta faced Domžale, was already losing 0:2, but still celebrated a remarkable 5:2 victory. Luka Božičković watched his team’s dream comeback from the sidelines after feeling pain in his hamstring after a little over half an hour of play.
A detailed examination revealed that the injury is not of the worst possible nature; however, it is an issue that will require more than just a few days of rest and rehabilitation. Luka Božičković will thus be sidelined for several weeks, and he is expected to be back in action by the end of September. Among other things, this also means that he had to thank the coach of the BiH U21 team, which is competing in the same qualifying group as Slovenia.
