Nebojsa Simić: Back on court, out for his first title

After a 10-month injury break, MT Melsungen’s goalkeeper was key as his side qualified for the Winamax EHF Finals 2026

When MT Melsungen played their first-ever EHF Finals in 2025, Nebojsa Simić could not help his team on court. Some weeks before, the MT Melsungen and Montenegro goalkeeper had to undergo a huge knee operation. 

“Almost everything was damaged. The surgery took more than two hours, for six weeks I needed crutches to walk, more than 10 months I was ruled out,” recalls Simić. All ligaments and both menisci were torn after his injury in April 2025.
