Školjic, who joined the Jinmen Tigers family, talked about his first experience of the Chinese Super League and his deep impression of his new team on the January 31 interview on Tianjin TV's "New Vision of Sports". He also shared his experience of trying to get a hair transplant, from the Zinedine Zidane-style Balderrama to his new look.
As for the feeling of debuting in the Chinese Super League and the memory of the first game, Škorić said bluntly: "The first game in the Chinese Super League is against the Jinmen Tigers, and at first I felt very uncomfortable. The difference between the Croatian league and the Chinese Super League is significant, and it took me two months to gradually adapt to the rhythm and style here."
On the positioning of the versatile player on the field, Škorić said, "I am capable of playing as a center back and a full back, and I have excelled in both positions in past seasons. Going forward, I will give my best to whatever the coaches have in store for me and look forward to showing myself on the field."
Talking about his personal attacking characteristics and contributions, Škorić said modestly, "I scored two goals last season, mainly thanks to frequent breakthroughs from the back position. I value the team's overall victory more, and any goal is worth celebrating, but as always I will give my best to the team."
Talking about the winter training and recovery, Škorić revealed, "For personal reasons, I have not participated in an official match for three months. It takes time for the body to recover, but now the condition is getting better and better and I believe that I will be in the best shape to meet the challenges in the new season."
Regarding his new teammate Fioric, Škoric said, "Fioric told me that it will be easier for him to adapt to the new team with my help. I believe Fioric is a good player and his arrival will help the team."
On his new hosts, the Sky Zimmermen Tigers, Škoric commented, "When I first saw the Zimmermen Tigers, I felt that this is a strong team with an excellent home field and passionate fans. Our goal is to win more matches and make a name for the team."
As for hairstyles and nicknames, Škoric wryly says, "It's probably because of the shape or style of my head. But please note that I have had a hair transplant and my hair is growing. Maybe in a year's time, when my hair grows out, people will rename me. Stop calling me Zidane and call me Balderrama."
