Why isn’t Bořil going to the national team? The reason is simple

Jan Bořil will not go to the national team meeting. Surprising news for some, but the opposite is true. The experienced back of Slavia has a problem with his knee, which he has been working on since the EURO.

The 30-year-old Bořil has already taken home an unspecified muscle problem from the European Championship in June. That’s why he missed the start of the new season.

“Honza brought a problem from the national team. He had a recommended long break, after which he went to the first training and came back to the state he was in before. It’s a long-term problem from the Euros,” said Slavia coach Trpišovský at the end of July.

And the problem in question is still not improving significantly. That’s why Bořil is not performing as well as the Slavic community was used to. “He has a chronic problem, that’s why he plays only once a week for Slavia,” a source familiar with the situation told ruik.cz.

Bořil has started six of Slavia’s 16 games this season, including five in the league and once in the Europa League playoff against Legia Warsaw.

The captain now has two weeks to get himself back on track. After the national break, Slavia will play Liberec, and in a week they will play Maccabi Haifa.

By that time, Borouj should be able to recover, if not, Oscar Dorley, who played in great form at the beginning of this season, is ready for his position.
