"As long she plays handball, Ana will be part of Montenegro’s national team,“ Dragan Adzic said.

“I’m glad that I will continue to play in the national team, with which I have achieved a lot of success.

“I'm glad that coach Adzic count still on me. I think I can help the team. When I signed for Vardar, most of the players from the national team immediately called me to ask me if I will continue to play for Montenegro.

“It shows the commitment of the team for me, and is an additional motive. Also, the first two 2014 EHF EURO qualification matches will be a great preparation for the upcoming World Championships in Serbia, the only competition where I didn't get a medal so far,” 34-year-old Djokic told eurohandball.com.
