Statements on a Slovenian website were made by Benjamin Verbich and referred to his presence in Panathinaikos, but in the representative group of his country. “Of course I feel fantastic. I’ve played in the Champions League, I’ve won various league titles at different clubs, but nothing compares to what we’ve achieved. It means a lot to me that I was able to contribute to this historic achievement for Slovenia“, he stated on the website “celje.info”the experienced winger, who did not mince his words.
On the goal of the Slovenians at Euro 2024: “You don’t go to the European Championship just to show off, but to do something and present your country in the best possible way. I have no particular preferences for the draw, but I know that the best national teams in Europe are gathered there and whoever the opponent is will make it difficult for us. But I think we can succeed if we continue in this way».
About his presence at Panathinaikos:I had many ups and downs at Panathinaikos. This is a club that really demands a lot in every game and it’s that pressure that we footballers love, because we like to fight for the top places. I was always in clubs that were fighting for the championship».
For this year’s season in the “clover”: “My situation is what it is. I was very disappointed because the coach didn’t put me on the list for the European matches, but in football you can’t give up even when things are more difficult. Hard work always pays off. I have 1.5 years left on my contract with Panathinaikos, so my mind is completely there».
