Serbia explained the absence of CSKA players Gajic and Zdelar in the final squad for the 2022 World Cup

Telegraf.rs journalist Zoran Ivkovic explained why CSKA football players Milan Gajic and Sasha Zdelar were not called up to the Serbian national team to participate in the World Cup.

Serbs at the 2022 World Cup were in Group G along with the teams of Brazil, Switzerland and Cameroon.

– Milan Gajic and Sasha Zdelar were not included in the final list of the Serbian national team only because the head coach Dragan Stojkovic had already formed the squad a long time ago. All the players who are on the list for the World Cup in Qatar really deserve an invitation. These are the best players that Serbia has at the moment. Zdelar and Gajic are also strong, but there are players who are even better. Of course it is a pity that they are not called. Enough time has already passed, and the fans have no objection to the final list of the head coach. In the past, it happened that before the European or World Championships, previous head coaches could suddenly invite players who did not deserve a call in any way. Now everything is good in the Serbian national team, and I believe that in the future such high-quality and young players as Zdelar and Gajic will be called up to the national team, Sport24 quotes Ivkovic.
