Dragovic jokes
“Maybe I’m disabled for the military!”
Aleksandar Dragovic continued his basic military service the day after Austria's 2:1 derby win against SK Rapid! As the Bundesliga club confirmed, the 33-year-old defender joined the army on Monday to resume his basic military service, which he had interrupted around 14 years ago. The physically ailing Dragovic had previously joked: "Tomorrow my ankle will probably be swollen. Maybe I'll be disabled for the military ..."

Released from the army for footballing activities
However, his sporting commitments with the "Veilchen" are not affected by this. Just like his Austria team-mate Luca Pazourek (20), Dragovic can continue to take part in all training sessions and matches, as the veteran has been released from military service for his footballing activities.
Due to his transfer from Vienna Austria to FC Basel in January 2011 shortly before his 20th birthday, Dragovic had not completed his basic military service, and the 100-time international has now received his call-up order from the army for the day after the 344th Vienna derby.
