The team from the website Planet nogomet headed to the Styrian capital this time, but of course, they didn’t go there on vacation. The destination of their trip was Ljudski vrt, the temple of the local football, where the most successful Slovenian club of all time resides.
“And also the best Slovenian club!” our interviewee emphasized decisively. Arnel Jakupović, the leading scorer of the national championship, who is already knocking on the doors of foreign clubs with his goals and good performances, is well aware that the view of the Prva liga Telemach table offers a slightly different thought. Therefore, the next season, we have to prove it on the field,” he quickly added.
Will Arnel Jakupović actually wear the purple jersey next season is something the Maribor goal scorer doesn’t want to think about at the moment. Also because he admits to enjoying himself a lot in Maribor. Much more than he did in Domžale. And even when he was a member of the yellow family, whenever he played with the idea of which Slovenian club he would most like to play for, he always decided on Maribor. “I always liked playing in Ljudski vrt, something always attracted me. The stadium, the fans, the atmosphere, a different vibe… Maribor has always attracted me,” the 25-year-old footballer born in Austria said.
Arnel Jakupović also touched on his extremely diverse career in a conversation with our journalist Nik Brumen. He recalled his time in England and explained why he enjoyed it there. He also revealed why he didn’t like it so much in Italy, where he even wore the gear of the giant Juventus for a while.
“I trained with Pjanić, Dybala, Higuain, Mandžukić,” Arnel Jakupović revealed among other things, who has a clear personal goal for the 2023/24 season – to become the top scorer of the Prva liga Telemach. He is currently at fifteen goals scored, and he will try to improve the statistics even more today when Maribor visits Ljubljana at Bravo.
