From Wednesday onwards, the Slovenian national football team is also preparing for Euro 2024, which will be their first appearance in a major tournament in long 14 years. Among those selected by coach Matjaž Kek for the extended squad of 30 players is Tomi Horvat. It would almost be a sin if the Prekmurje native were not included. Tomi Horvat has been in exceptional form this season.

The Sturm player has played an impressive 45 matches for the black and whites in all competitions, scoring 11 goals and providing 10 assists. Outstanding, no doubt. But Tomi Horvat is not only enjoying success as a footballer; even in his private life, things are “full of excitement.” He will soon become a father, and in the days following the end of the club season and before heading to Brdo pri Kranju, he also “got down on one knee.” He proposed to his sweetheart, Laura Čas, and received a positive answer. In short – a perfect life!

“I can’t complain. After winning the double crown, I surprised my chosen one, and she was equally pleased,” smiled Tomi Horvat upon arriving in Upper Carniola, adding: “Indeed, it was a fantastic season for me, crowned with two trophies at the club. But that’s a closed chapter now; it’s time for the national team. ‘A really good tournament’ awaits us, so… We are all eagerly looking forward to it!”

Tomi Horvat: “This also boosts confidence”

Tomi Horvat admitted that he donned the national team gear with a hefty dose of confidence, making him even more convinced that he can help Slovenia in Germany. “After such a season, I can bring many positive things to the national team jersey. I’ve played well in numerous matches, and of course, this also boosts confidence. I can’t wait for new challenges,” emphasized the 25-year-old Tomi Horvat.

The former Mura player concluded during the initial gathering with journalists regarding the Euro 2024 appearance: “In the past, I almost always followed all the matches in major tournaments. Now, we will also be at a major tournament… Fantastic. Even better! We have a splendid opportunity to show everyone how good we are.” If Tomi Horvat, who says he has looked at the lists of opponents but doesn’t dwell on them, performs as well as he did in the Sturm jersey, Slovenia will undoubtedly have an easier time…
