Didije Dinar, the coach of Montenegro’s men’s handball national team, has revealed the roster for the upcoming European Championship qualifiers.

Montenegro will kick off its qualification journey for the 2026 European Championship with a match against Finland on November 6 at the “Bemax Arena” in Podgorica, followed by an away game against Slovakia in Košice just four days later. The team faces Hungary in qualifying group 2.

The roster consists of 18 handball players, all of whom have previous experience from past qualifications and major tournaments, with no newcomers included.

“Unfortunately, right back Stefan Čavor has withdrawn due to injury, and pivot Nebojša Simović will also miss this EHF week for the same reason, despite being expected to return to the team. Additionally, middle back Miloš Božović will not join the squad due to personal matters. Pivot Vuk Lazović will only be available for the first qualifier match against Finland,” announced the Association.

The national team will gather on Monday in Podgorica.

The roster includes – goalkeepers: Nebojsa Simić and Nikola Matović;

wings: Miloš Vujović, Aleksandar Bakić, Mirko Radović, and Luka Radović;

pivots: Vuk Lazović, Luka Vujović, Miodrag Ćorsović, and Mihailo Šćekić;
