Proud St Johnstone goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov is targeting the number one jersey for Bulgaria after earning his latest call-up.The McDiarmid Park shot-stopper - the signing of the summer so far - has again been selected for his country and will this month travel for a EURO 2024 qualifier against Lithuania and then a friendly with Albania.“I’m really proud,” said Mitov, who made his senior Bulgaria debut in a friendly with Iran in September.“It is now about getting selected every time.
I want that number one shirt. I want to challenge to be the number one for my country.”Mitov’s international recognition arrived not long after he joined Saints - and following a number of impressive performances.“Coming to this football club and this league has given me the opportunity,” he said.“Everything is working well - we just need to start winning games.“After the Hearts game I had a call from the Bulgaria manager and he said that coming to Scotland changes everything.“I kind of knew I was going to be selected for the following camp because I’d never had that call before.“After that game I just put my head down, didn’t get too high and kept working hard to play well.“As a goalkeeper, you need to be consistent with everything you do.
You don’t want a goalkeeper who is nine out of 10 one week, then costs you the game the next.“If you are consistent, the team is going to feel safer with you and international call-ups will keep on coming.”Reflecting on Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Livingston, Mitov said: “I genuinely feel sorry for the lads because I thought it was one of our better games.“We played well and we created a lot of chances.
