Marko Jankovic Receives Honorary Award from His Hometown

Qarabag's defensive midfielder, Marko Jankovic, has been awarded an honorary award from his hometown of Cetinje, Montenegro.

Idman.Biz reports that Marko Jankovic himself shared the information on his Instagram page.

It should be noted that this honorary award, called "Plaketa Prijestonice Cetinje," is presented by the administration of Cetinje, the historical capital of Montenegro, to individuals who have made exceptional contributions to the development of the city.

"The hardest and at the same time the greatest honor is to be recognized in your own country. The award presented by the administration of the city of Cetinje is a recognition of the path, work, and perseverance I have built outside the borders of my country. This award is both a great honor and an obligation for me - because I must justify this trust by striving for greater and better results, knowing that it is not easy to be recognized in strong competition, where bright athletes are in the majority.

I dedicate this award to my coaches who taught me my first steps in Cetinje - Nikola Nino Milanovic and Marko Markovic, as well as to my family, which is the foundation of everything. Great roads often start from muddy fields, and without those beginnings, there would be no results today.

With the hope that better results will continue on this path where I represent our city and state, I also express my deep gratitude to Mayor Nikola Djuraskovic," M. Jankovic noted in his post.
