Maribor and Arnel Jakupović? The story is over! At least, that’s what they claim in Croatia. Sportske novosti reports that the discussions held in recent days between all involved parties have borne fruit. Arnel Jakupović is expected to undergo a medical examination on Wednesday, play his last match for Maribor on Thursday in the European game against the Swedish club Djurgarden, and then bid farewell to both Ljudski vrt and Slovenia. And the next destination? Osijek!
“Negotiations between the two clubs lasted for several days, with the deal being sealed due to two key factors: the fact that the Austrian forward had only one year left on his contract and Jakupović’s desire to join the white and blues. Last season, Jakupović scored 17 league goals (19 in all competitions), just one goal short of becoming the top scorer of the Slovenian league. He continued his excellent scoring form this season, already finding the net seven times (five in the league, twice in Europe) in just 12 appearances,” Sportske novosti wrote about the future of the former Domžale player.
Arnel Jakupović is moving to Osijek as a replacement for Argentine forward Ramon Mierez, who recently signed for Al Jazira. The club from the United Arab Emirates paid €3 million for the 27-year-old, while Osijek is expected to spend €1 million to acquire Jakupović. Maribor can also expect bonuses from a future sale.
