How much will participation in the Euro 2024 impact Slovenian football? Much will undoubtedly depend on the performance of Kek’s team in the tournament in Germany, but there’s no doubt that the consequences will be entirely beneficial. It’s expected that Slovenian footballers will become even more appealing to larger clubs, and one of those likely to make a career move after the summer is Vanja Drkušić.
It’s been known for some time that the former member of Bravo, currently wearing the captain’s armband at the Russian Premier League club Sochi, is a target for the Serbian giant Red Star Belgrade. But as revealed by the player’s agent, the interest doesn’t stop there, with reports emerging from Russia about Nantes in France, where experienced Slovenian goalkeeper Denis Petrić already plays. Mladen Ratkovica from the KALA Stars Management agency confirmed that there is indeed interest from France in the excellent defender from Šmarješke Toplice.
“Regarding Vanja Drkušić, I can say that there is interest from clubs that have been following him for some time. Some are from France as well. But also from other countries. I wouldn’t talk about names, and it’s too early to talk about a transfer. Vanja Drkušić is focused on the Russian league. Sochi is in a crucial part of the season and must focus only on the matches,” said Mladen Ratkovica to Russian media.
Today, at 42 years old, the director of the agency, which also manages the careers of Mitja Ilenič, Adnan Golubović, Klemen Mihelak, Jan Đap, Adam Vošnjak, and others, added regarding Drkušić’s future: “After the end of the season, Euro 2024 begins, and Vanja will play for the Slovenian national team. I believe that after the European Championship will be the right moment for a transfer. That’s all I can say at this time.”
