In the Stožice Stadium, home to the Slovenian top-league club Olimpija, construction machines have been buzzing for some time. Workers from a neighboring company in Hungary are laying a new grass surface on the largest stadium in the country. Are they also racing against time? Let’s not forget, in less than 14 days, Portugal will visit Ljubljana, and the big star Cristiano Ronaldo will likely come to the Slovenian capital. However, the Sports Institute Šport Ljubljana assures that there are no fears of not completing the work on time.
“The work is progressing according to the schedule. The recent rain last week caused us some difficulties,” said Andrej Kastelic, who oversees the turf management at the Šport Ljubljana Institute, in an interview with EkipoSN.
Andrej Kastelic, formerly a top-level handball player, added: “Perhaps we are a day behind due to the rain, but the completion of the work is still planned well before our final deadline. In principle, no match should be in question.“
