UTD Podcast: Matic explains why players must give back
The 32-year-old is immensely proud of his country and speaks warmly about his hometown of Sabac, yet he knows that improvements can be made and particularly for young children there today.
During his episode of UTD Podcast, Matic talks about his own tough upbringing in Serbia and shockingly reveals how his school did not have toilet facilities, forcing the pupils to go into the woods instead.
Nemanja’s formative years were also spent playing football on a gritty pitch next to a cemetery and, as the gentle giant points out, his help can ensure the next generation doesn’t see such hardship.
“I don’t like to speak about my charity, my help, mostly for the kids,”explains Nemanja.
