Regarding Nikola Sekulov from Italian side Juventus who was constantly refusing Vujovikj’s call, the coach gave the following statement: “I believe that Nikola Sekulov could have boosted the quality of this team if he was with the national team. However, despite I was inviting him at every friendly match until these qualifiers, he was rejecting the calls. He did not want to play for Macedonia. At the end, the Federation was even given an ultimatum by his parent that Sekulov would accept the call but only if we summon his brother as well.”
