Team news

Partizan squad started winter preps short of two players – Ricardo Gomes (extended break) and Armin Djerlek (chickenpox).

Moreover, Marko Jankovic and Svetozar Markovic train outside the group under special regime.

We spoke to Djerlek who is recovering from chickenpox back home in Novi Pazar:

– If it wasn`t such a serious business, I would actually find it funny, says Djerlek.

I could never imagine this could happen to me but I have to get used to it and be patient until it`s all gone. It started week ago and blisters are almost gone by now but there` s a period of incubation due to virus still present in the body so I have to be careful. I`m constantly on line with club doctor Rosic and next week I have a medical check-up. How did I get this? Well, from my young cousin. Now, I rest, play Sony playstation, just not that I`m enjoying it too much.

I find it hard not being with the squad, I was eagerly awaiting winter preps. Teammates are in touch and checking on me, Tosic, Markovic and others. It could have been worse but bad things happen. I`ll join the team soon, ready for the new challenges.

Greeting to all and be with Partizan!
