The legendary Zlatko Zahović is increasingly considering a return to football: He is interested in a serious project, both in Slovenia and abroad
It has been almost four years since Zlatko Zahović last operated in the world of football. In March 2020, he bid farewell to the position of sports director at Maribor, and since then, there hasn’t been a hero to convince him to return. However, now the all-time leading scorer of the Slovenian national team admits that he is increasingly drawn back to football.
“I’m constantly answering this question; I think someone else should ask it more than me. But the fact is, I am considering it. I went through an unpleasant phase of life, but I got through it, and now I am thinking about it. Whether it’s Slovenian football or somewhere else, I don’t know, but I’m thinking very intensively. My, let’s call it luck, is that I can choose. Not clubs, but whether I want to or not. I would go into a serious story, I would think about it very well,” explained Zlatko Zahović as a guest on the Doj se prosi podcast recorded by Mura.
While the Maribor native mentions that “all this doesn’t necessarily mean that he will definitely return,” if he does, it’s most likely that he will resume the role of sports director: “As a sports director, I have certain experiences. I don’t have them as a coach, although I was very involved in that area as well. But I think as a sports director, I can show something.” You can listen to the entire podcast on this link.
