Stojkovic's unexpected message for Radonjic, who said he won't play for Serbia as long as Stojkovic is coach
An unexpected decision...
The head coach of the Serbian football team, Dragan "Piksi" Stojkovic, spoke about Mallorca footballer Nemanja Radonjic and the fact that he was not invited to play for the national squad.
Before that, he said that he does not follow other people's opinions, but is only involved in making his own decisions.
"I already explained the list. I don't follow the environment, other people's opinions. If you were me, 99 percent you would do the same. There is not much controversy. To do that, you have to look at football from all sides. Not as a fan, not in an emotional way and not in a way that goes against ethics. There is no euphoria, which means we were right."
"What about Radonjic interests you? I have no intention of talking about players who are not on the roster. They are wonderful guys. The door is not closed to anyone. They are great professionals, but the decision is what it is, based on the statistics, what I have observed and watched. There are no personal problems and it's not just him. Other players you are used to seeing in the national team are not there, for completely justified reasons," Piksi stressed.
After a number of preparatory games, Serbia is headed for the European championship in Germany (EURO 2024) where it will compete in a difficult group. The first rival is England on June 16, followed by games against Slovenia (June 20) and Denmark (June 25).
