Now even Ante Šimundža has voiced his concerns and admitted that reinforcements are needed, but despite this, only the doors leading out of Maribor remain open. The latest to part ways with the purple team is Marko Kolar, who will continue his career in Croatia. There, he will try to fill the gap left in attack after the departure of Timo Matavž, who recently signed with the Slovenian second-tier team from Nova Gorica. As mentioned, Marko Kolar will replace him at the Croatian HNK Gorica.

29-year-old Marko Kolar signed with the Štajers a year ago, when he agreed to a contract until summer 2025. The former Croatian youth international did not make a mark in the purple jersey, scoring only three times in 21 matches in Slovenian club competitions. He did not have a real opportunity under Ante Šimundža, so the news of his move to 1. HNL did not actually surprise anyone.
Marko Kolar, who has signed with HNK Gorica until 2026, previously played in Poland for Wisła Plock, and in his career, he has also worn the jerseys of Emmen, Krakow’s Wisła, Zagreb’s Lokomotiva, Inter from Zaprešić, Dinamo, and Sesvete.
