Rogaška is in exceptional form in the spring part of the 2023/24 season, as the black-and-white team confirmed on Sunday with a victory in Koper. The surprising good results achieved by the club from Rogaška Slatina also owe credit to Patrik Mijić, who is currently arguably the best winter reinforcement in the Prva liga Telemach. The 25-year-old has scored four times in five played matches, including a goal against Koper.
At this point, an interesting question arises: how did Rogaška manage to bring in such a quality individual? “My agent directed me towards Slovenia and Rogaška. In Slovakia, I didn’t get enough opportunities to establish myself. I was a reserve and got only crumbs. Slovenian league is excellently covered on television, and I was close to it. I followed it closely because many of my compatriots play in it. In general, I follow all leagues in our neighborhood, and the SNL is considered an excellent springboard for a move to stronger championships,” said Patrik Mijić in an interview with Delo, who hails from neighboring Croatia.
Regarding his excellent form, the former member of Slovakian Vion added: “Things went well for me in the preparatory period; coach Oskar Drobne saw that and trusted me. Now I just try to repay him in the best way. I am not surprised by my performance and games because I believe in my abilities and my goal-scoring sense. I always find myself in opportunities. But more important than my goals is the survival in the 1. SNL, that is the team goal. It’s nice if my goals or assists contribute to that.”
