THIS IS ME: The Flensburg sports director opens up about the highs and lows of his illustrious career as player and coach

A 1.66-metre-tall player was EHF EURO champion three times, world champion once, and Olympic silver medallist. As a coach, he won the EHF Champions League, the EHF Cup Winners’ Cup and numerous domestic titles — and even there Ljubomir Vranjes proved that size does not matter. In this instalment of the EHF series ‘This is me’, the Swede with Balkan roots, who is now back at ‘his’ SG Flensburg-Handewitt as sports director, talks about the highs and lows of his career, and why he wants to support young people on their way to becoming better handball players and, above all, better people.
