In Ljudski vrt, a lot has been happening recently. New players, departures, and now a double contract renewal. Maribor has extended the contracts of Jan Repas, the team’s engine in midfield, and Niko Grlić, one of the most promising players of the Štajerska giant. Jan Repas extended his contract until 2026, while Niko Grlić extended his until 2028, with both players also agreeing to a +1 option, which adds 12 additional months to their new contracts.

27-year-old Jan Repas has been a member of Maribor since August 2020, previously playing for Domžale and Caen. His contract with Maribor was only valid until the end of the season, so the news of the new contract signing comes as no surprise. After all, the 27-year-old is one of the most important members of the Štajerska club, and has also been closely watched for some time by the Slovenian national team coach Matjaž Kek.
18-year-old Niko Grlić broke into Maribor’s first team this season, in which he played six matches and scored during his debut in the Prva liga Telemach against Domžale. His contract with the violets was originally set to expire at the end of next year.
