Dražen Mihajlović criticizes exclusion of Siniša Mihajlović from Serbian lexicon
Dražen Mihajlović has publicly criticized the omission of his late brother, football legend Siniša Mihajlović, from the recently published lexicon, ‘One Hundred Notable Serbs in Croatia’.
Speaking on the decision, Dražen Mihajlović characterized the exclusion as a sign of selectivity and short-sightedness by the editorial board. He noted that Siniša Mihajlović, who was born in Borovo near Vukovar, was a global symbol of his people and achieved international recognition through his football career in clubs such as Lazio, Roma, and Inter.
The editorial board, led by historian Ivo Goldštajn, reportedly based its selection criteria on reconciliation, inclusivity, and tolerance. The omission of other figures, including Patriarch Pavle, was also highlighted by Dražen Mihajlović as evidence of the board's editorial choices.
