Maribor met late into the night on Monday, no solution found: Šuler insists he will sort things out, Krznar-Iličić meeting on Tuesday
Nothing new in Maribor. Status quo, if you like. Or: everyone is alive and well. No one left Ljudski vrt. For now. And it is not impossible that Josip Iličić will not leave either. After the eternal derby, coach Damir Krznar told the former national team player that he was no longer counting on him. The Croatian has finally had enough, fed up with the capricious star’s whimsical habits.
Discussions on how to break a hefty contract are expected to start… But apparently both Krznar and the sport director Marko Šuler have bitten into too big of an apple this time. Or to put it another way: they “took it out” on a footballer they clearly shouldn’t have taken it out on.
All this set off such a loud alarm in the capital of Štajerska that the club’s entire management met on Monday evening. As reported by Večer, Marko Šuler “had to appear before the members of the board of directors, and the club’s business director Bojan Ban was also present at the meeting“.
They had a meeting for at least two hours
The club leaders met for at least two hours and their main conclusion was nothing special: they agreed that the situation in Maribor is not good. “However, no decisions were taken that would have shaken the status of the business or sports director,” writes Večer.
Even after Monday’s meeting, Josip Iličić is still a member of Maribor. And it is not impossible that this will continue to be the case. Marko Šuler is not running away from the fact that he has a big problem in the dressing room, but he should assure the club management that he will solve the problem. As a consequence, they are due to meet again in Ljudski vrt on Tuesday. This time Šuler, Krznar and Iličić will sit at the same table. Will everything be all right again then? Let’s be surprised…
