Although he is still under contract with Maribor, Marcos Tavares Jr. continues to wait in vain for a spot in the squad of the Styrian giant. His father is a living legend and the all-time record holder at the club, but despite being the captain of Maribor’s youth team at just 20 years old, the Slovenian-Brazilian citizen has yet to establish himself in the first team.
Marcos Tavares Jr. was loaned out to Slovenska Bistrica last winter, and he has now officially returned there. The former Slovenian youth international has been preparing for the new season in the 2. SNL with Bistrica for some time, and the Football Association of Slovenia (NZS) confirmed a few days before the opening match that he will continue to wear the club’s jersey.
The player, who shone at Maribor in the 2022/23 season by scoring 17 goals in 24 matches in the youth league, has scored only once in the 2. SNL so far, getting only 9 appearances and a total of 190 minutes on the pitch. As a member of Bistrica, he also played in the second youth league, where he scored two goals in two matches.
