Leeds United’s Jaka Bijol Reveals Surprising Inspiration Behind Stellar Premier League Debut and Yorkshire Passion
I had a really nice upbringing and my family gave me opportunities to try and do things I wanted to do, so I was fortunate in that respect.
I get a bit emotional thinking about my childhood because I have so many nice memories, but I’m loving life here in Leeds now.
I will often have a drive out visiting nice places like the Yorkshire Dales. It’s proper England up here! I really enjoy it.
Leeds have made history this season, winning a league game at Manchester United for the first time since 1981 and reaching their first FA Cup semi-final in 39 years. How did you enjoy marking your Slovenia team-mate Benjamin Sesko in the recent win at Old Trafford?
Ben and I are close and speak quite a lot, so I try to help him and we have met up since both coming to England.
It was a special feeling to come up against him twice this season in the Premier League because we’ve played together so many times for Slovenia.
