Olimpija will take place today at 14. will be away in nearby Grosuplje, where a new face might be sitting on the Dragons’ bench. We are not talking about the head coach – that role has hardly been well taken over by Zoran Zeljković. But as Sportklub reports, the former Koper coach will get a new colleague in Ljubljana. Antonio Delamea Mlinar is expected to join the professional staff of the national team.
The former defender, who was also a Slovenian national team player during his career, ended his football career just over a year ago due to chronic knee problems that no longer allowed him to play football at the highest level.
Today, 32-year-old Antonio Delamea Mlinar stayed in Stožice, where he took up a new role. He became part of Olimpija’s youth coaching pyramid, first proving himself as an assistant in the cadet team, then taking on the same role in the youth team.
According to Sportklub, Antonio Delamea Mlinar, who also gained experience in the United States during his career, where he played for the New England Revolution, is moving to the professional staff of the national team at the request of sporting director Goran Boromisa.
