The youngster from Dinamo Zagreb, Fran Tomek, who was sought after by Damir Krznar last season to join Maribor and later found himself on the radar of the current leading team, Celje, is finally coming to Slovenia. However, he won’t be moving to Styria despite remaining on the list of potential transfers for the purples even after Krznar’s departure.
The interest from Krznar in the youngster isn’t that surprising considering their successful past collaboration in the Croatian capital. In fact, Krznar had spoken about his former protege in Dinamo’s second team with high praise last December: “Fran Tomek is my former protégé from Dinamo’s second team. He was the leader of that team. A very good midfielder, excellent character, and hardworking. In the last six months, he completely lost his way in Gorica. He had problems with injuries and also because of the club’s situation. Coaches didn’t have the courage to include him in the team. It’s a problem for me now because he hasn’t played much. Fran is a player worth fighting for. If we could bring him to Maribor, and if everyone is satisfied with the deal, the transfer could happen.”
According to information from Sportklub, Tomek will be moving to the Slovenian coast to join Koper, where he is expected to be officially presented as a significant reinforcement in the coming days. The 21-year-old decided to move to Bonifika primarily because, at this stage of his career, he seeks an environment where he can regularly play at the highest level. Bonifika offers him that opportunity, especially considering reports from Sportklub that suggest Luka Vešner Tičič might soon depart from the Canaries due to significant interest from abroad. At Counts, the former Dinamo member might not get much playtime due to the extensive squad depth, as is the case with Matic Vrbanec, who has already completely fallen out of rotation in the current lineup.
