Matija Rom finds a new club more than 3,000 kilometres from home after parting ways with Croatia: the side defender is now earning his living in Georgia
If I had gone by car, I would have driven for more than 37 hours. If I had walked, I would have walked for at least 25 days. It’s a long way from Slovenia to Telavi, Georgia. Very far. Matija Rom set off on this 3000-kilometre journey at the end of March. After playing in Dalmatia and quite close to home, he is now kicking the ball at the very edge of Europe. After leaving Šibenik, former young Slovenian international Matija Rom has agreed a deal with FC Telavi, who play in the Georgian First League.
Matija Rom – in the past also played for
Domžale
, Inter Zaprešić and Ukrainian Kolos Kovalivka, signed for the Georgian team, which was only founded in 2016 and was the seventh best team in the country last year, but is currently ranked eighth in the rankings. The 24-year-old Slovenian player has also helped him in the last two matches, but was unable to prevent defeats against
Dinamo Batumi
(1:4) and Saburtalo (0:3).
