Reproach to Rangnick
Dragovic disappointed: “As if I had never been there”
The fact that he never got the chance to show what he can do under Ralf Rangnick has left its mark on Aleksandar Dragovic, as he now described on "Talk und Tore".
"It goes without saying that I was disappointed," said the Austria defender on Sunday, making no secret of his frustration. Under Didi Constantini, Marcel Koller and Franco Foda, the Viennese had always been one of the mainstays in the red-white-red defensive chain, but under Rangnick "Drago" suddenly no longer played a role.
Canceled only once
In his 13 years with the national team, he had only turned down once (due to coronavirus), so it was hard to have the door suddenly closed in his face. "From one day to the next, it was as if I had never been there," says Dragovic.
The 33-year-old has since spoken to the team boss and respects Rangnick's decision - especially as he can hardly blame the German. "The success proves them right, I can't even say anything," said Dragovic, who is keeping his fingers crossed for his buddies David, Alaba, Marko Arnautovic, Marcel Sabitzer and Co. for the World Cup qualifiers despite not making the squad.
