The news we exclusively revealed on Saturday was officially confirmed on Sunday – Grega Ciglar is the new sporting director of Ilirija. The club from Šiška, competing in the 2. SNL, announced on their official website that the position has been taken over by the former Domžale official, who has also been working as a staff member for the Slovenian U21 national team, which qualified for the Euro U21 this year.
“Ilirija has a new sporting director, Grega Ciglar, who assumed this role as of today. He brings with him extensive top-tier league experience, having previously worked with NK Domžale and NK Radomlje. In addition to his club engagements, Ciglar has been part of the coaching staff of Slovenia’s U21 national team, which recently made history by qualifying for the European Championship for the first time. Grega Ciglar, welcome to Šiška!” stated Ilirija, currently placed 13th in the 2. SNL standings. This position clearly indicates that Ciglar has significant work ahead to keep one of Slovenia’s most traditional clubs in this tier of competition.
It’s worth noting that after leaving Domžale, Grega Ciglar was also in talks with Radomlje and Gorica, but ultimately chose to accept the offer from the Ljubljana-based club.
