ESTER SOKLER has set his sights on a 20-goal haul and blasting his way into the Slovenia squad.
The Aberdeen striker has had to bide his time but Bojan Miovski's sale to Girona has finally opened the door for him.
Sokler, 25, has responded with four goals already this season and is looking to hit 20 to catch the eye of Slovenian national coach Matjaz Kek.
He said: "I think in the new season you need some games to reach the full fitness level, when you are fit for matches and have that sharpness in front of goal.
"You need that first goal to build up the confidence and you go from there. I don't like friendlies at all, so the competitive League Cup games were good because it is competitive and you play for something.
"I like this more. I've scored four so it is a good start. I want to score 20 goals this season."
Sokler has been capped at U21 level and admitted it is a dream to play for his country.
