Acun Ilicali has not officially entered the management structures of Maribor yet; so far, only a letter of intent has been signed. However, this has not been a major obstacle for the wealthy Turk. He has already placed his people in some of the most important positions at Ljudski vrt, who, especially towards the end of the summer transfer window, have rolled up their sleeves. Maribor now seems stronger in terms of players, but the legendary Marinko Galić is among those who are not entirely convinced that a positive story is unfolding in the Styrian capital.
The former Slovenian international, who played in the Champions League with Maribor as a player, mainly hopes that his former club will not repeat the story of Olimpija during the time when it was managed by Milan Mandarić.
“Such investments can be a double-edged sword. We don’t know what the future holds, and we will see if it is the right move or not. There are skeptics, and I am one of them. Let’s remember Olimpija and Milan Mandarić. The club had to borrow money that needed to be repaid. Even before that, Olimpija ended up in the fifth league due to debts. I sincerely hope that the story in Maribor will be a positive one and not at all like what happened with Olimpija,” Marinko Galić, 54, told Šport TV.
