Slovenia are looking for a new coach after deciding to part ways with Matjaz Kek following their failure to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, the national federation announced yesterday.
The 64-year-old’s contract expired at the end of November and the Slovenian Football Association (NZS) said that it was time to give someone else a chance.
“We agreed that, after seven years of very good partnership, marked by a very successful qualification to the (2024) European Championship, it was time to end our work together,” NZS said in a statement.
“We will choose a new coach… without any time pressure,” the statement added, stipulating that a new handler would be named before the squad’s next match in March.
