Matej Erjavec, the Slovenian Basketball Federation President, confirmed in his interview with Dnevnik that Rado Trifunovic is no longer the head coach of the national team.

He also noted that Trifunovic will stay a part of the team in another role while the main candidate for the head coaching job has been CSKA coach Dimitris Itoudis.

However, although both sides are interested in cooperating, nothing is official yet and won’t be until the basketball world recuperates from the coronavirus outbreak, and schedules for the clubs and national teams are known:

“At the moment, a formal deal can’t be done yet because nor we nor Itoudis know how things are going to go. We are in daily contact, however, at the moment basketball topics are not at the forefront but what someone is doing, how our families are, etc. We agreed on Wednesday (March 25), that we’ll start talking about basketball topics again as soon as some stability is established, when there will be a calendar of the club and national competitions on the table,” Erjavec said.
