Sasa Zibulovic, national player of the national handball team at the 2004 Olympic Games, has died
A black day for Greek handball: Sasa Zibulovic, national player of the national handball team at the Olympic Games in Athens and coach of the women’s team in Nea Ionia, died in the early hours of Thursday (2 September) at the age of 51.
February 9th is now a day of mourning for Greek handball. Sasa Zibulovic, one of the all-time greatest playmakers in Greek handball, died at the age of 51 in the early hours of Thursday (02/09), a dark day for the sport.
Zibulovic was born in Serbia but got a Greek passport in 2004 and wore the jersey of the men’s national team at the 2004 Olympic Games and the 2005 World Cup even won the 6th Women’s Cup.
The Hellenic Handball Federation announcement states in detail:
“A dark day has dawned for Greek handball.
Shocked and with great pain, the Hellenic Handball Federation bids farewell to Olympic champion Sasa Zibulovic, who died early in the morning at the age of 51.
A great sporting figure, great person, exemplary athlete, charismatic coach, accomplished professional and family man, Sasa Zibulovic loved and was deeply loved by Greece and the Greeks, despite not being born here.
He obtained Greek citizenship in 2004 and competed with the men’s national team at both the 2004 Olympic Games and the 2005 World Championships, contributing to two 6th places.
He honored the Greek colors and respected the national emblem from his first game to his last.
Just a few 24 hours have passed since Sunday afternoon when she led Nea Ionia to the 6th Greek Women’s Cup in their history in the 19th Final Four of Igoumenitsa.
This was his 5th title as a coach, all with Nea Ionia, preceded by two championships and two more Greek Cups.
Sasa Zibulovic was born on April 14, 1972 in Zajetar, Serbia and in 1998 he made the big decision to come to Greece and leave Metaloplastika. “Greece helped me a lot. If I could turn back time, I would do the same route all over again,” he said in an interview in 2010.
His wits, his wit, his athleticism gave him the reputation of being one of the best playmakers to ever walk the Greek handball courts.
He participated 2 years in Panhellenic and 10 years in Doukas and as an athlete he won 3 Championships (PGS 1999, Doukas 2001, 2008) and 2 Greek Cups (PGS 1999, Doukas 2008).
In June 2010, after a serious supraspinatus injury, he decided to retire at the age of 38, having started coaching the Dukes age groups the year before.
In summer 2016 he took over Nea Ionia and led them to two doubles until 2019 (2017, 2018). He returned in 2020 and led them with a renewed team to the Greek Cup, the team’s first title in 5 years.
The President Kostas Gandis, the members of the Board of Directors of the OHE, the First Vice-President of the EOE Stelios Angeloudis, the staff and the Press Office of the Federation express their deep sorrow and sincere condolences to his wife Selena and his son Uros, athlete of the 1986 drama sorry out.
The void left by Sasha Zibulovic in Greek handball is hard to fill.
Our thoughts are with his family.”

Handball
Mylonas announced that he is ending his career at the age of 28
International left midfielder Christos Mylonas announced his decision to retire from action following another serious injury.
Christos Mylonas made the decision to end his sports career when he was just 28 years old.
For our international left winger, it was decided that the men’s national team matches in the EURO 2024 final, which will be played in Germany in January, would be the last of his career.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have time to realize his dream and take part in a major event with the “Blue and Whites” that he and his teammates had worked for years to make happen.
they come true.
His serious injury (complete anterior cruciate ligament rupture) in the game between ASE Doukas and Diomedes Argos for the handball premiership forced him to an even premature end to his short-lived, great and award-winning career.
Christos Mylonas has played in all minor national teams, while he made his men’s national team debut in June 2014 in the 2015 World Cup play-offs against North Macedonia. He played a total of 54 games and scored 152 goals and is on the list of all-time top scorers.
His speed, his leadership qualities in his first year, his intelligence as well as the quality of his character were elements that made him special and one of the leading Greek handball players of all time.
At the collective level, in his 11 seasons in the handball premiership, Christos Mylonas managed to score 650 goals in 218 games and win the treble (championship, cup, European Cup) and a championship in 2021
in 2020 with AEK, where he is the sixth all-time goalscorer with 477 goals, was named league MVP in 2021, was voted the best left winger in two seasons (2020-2001, 2021-2022), and scored 194 goals in European competitions.
He started his career at Anagennisi Byron (2004-2010), moved on to Doukas (2010-2013), returned to Anagennisi (2013-2015) to help them in the big division, moved to again (2015-2016). Diomedes (2016). -2017) at Doukas, followed by a 5-year stay (2017-2018) at AEK. Last season he played in the 2nd Bundesliga
with the Elbflorence Dresden jersey and this year he returned again to Doukas, who he helped to become a star at the handball premiere.
Christos Mylonas underwent surgery today together with his wife, beach handball world champion Apostolina Dimitriou, to heal his injury.
The entire association, the board, the employees and the press office wish him a speedy recovery and continued success in everything he wants to do in his life.
In particular, the President of the OHE Kostas Gandis stated: “The gap that Christos Mylonas will leave in Greek handball is not just a gap in competition, because he is a charismatic athlete, a star in the national team and in all the clubs he has played for.”
We will miss him above all for the values and ethos with which he led the sport over the years. A child with a diamond character – a role model who never caused problems and was always there for our national teams. It is unfair that Christos will not be with our national team at the EURO, our team’s first participation in a major competition in 19 years.
Unfortunately, there are also bad moments in sport. We are sure he still has a lot to offer the sport and the national team, but we fully respect his decision. As a representative of the entire board of the association and, in my opinion, as an expression of the entire sport, I would like to thank him for what he has offered and wish him all the best
Many successes throughout his life and family happiness with his wife and also our athlete Apostolina Dimitriou. OCHE will honor Christos Mylonas for his great contribution to sport in a special event.”
