The Slovenians finished 3rd in Group B behind Switzerland and Kosovo with just two points from six games - they drew 0-0 at home to Switzerland.
Kek was the Slovenian national team coach for the second time since 2018. Last year, the team took part in the European Championship finals for the first time since 2000. In his first term of office from 2007 to 2011, he led the Slovenians to the 2010 World Cup.
