Arjan Malić, born in Jesenice, earned a dream transfer to champion Sturm Graz after an impressive season with Ried. Another Slovenian making waves in Austria is Erik Kojzek, an 18-year-old forward born in Slovenj Gradec and currently playing for Wolfsberger AC. Kojzek joined Wolfsberger in the summer of 2018 and has since played 137 matches, scoring 67 goals, primarily in youth categories, but also contributing two goals at the senior level.
Erik Kojzek started the 2024/25 season strongly, scoring two goals in a cup match against Drassburg, where Wolfsberger AC triumphed 7-0. His performance impressed coach Manfred Schmid, earning him a spot in the first league match of the new season.
In a match at home before 5,123 spectators, Wolfsberger AC defeated Austria Klagenfurt 4-1. Kojzek, a former Korotan player, began on the bench and entered the game in the 61st minute, replacing Thomas Sabitzer. During his time on the field, he made three shots, with one on target, and received a 6.9 rating from SofaScore. It will be intriguing to follow the development of this young talent at the Lavanttal-Arena.
