Maribor will leave their home environment on Friday and move abroad, with the purples continuing their preparations in Turkey, as Styria has been doing for years. Coach Ante Šimundža has shared encouraging news about two injured Maribor players. Currently, both captain Martin Milec and the long-term absentee Gregor Sikošek are sidelined, but it seems that the day when they return is not far away. After all, they will be among the passengers on the plane to Belek.
“It is worth mentioning the positive information that Milec and Sikošek have visibly progressed in the recovery process. This does not mean that they will be able to play immediately, but they are raising their readiness and will travel with us to Turkey,” said Ante Šimundža for the club’s website.
The former coach of Bulgarian Ludogorets also admitted that he is satisfied with the level of enthusiasm of his players. “The boys have coped well with the efforts so far; we concluded this part of the preparations at Ljudski vrt with post-match regeneration. On Friday, we hit the road. We hope and believe that the temperatures in Turkey will be higher than they were at home. Due to the conditions we have, we had to perform the majority of activities on artificial turf, but it was always noticeable that the boys are at a high mental level, ready for sacrifice and hard work, and that is the right direction,” emphasized Ante Šimundža.
