Maribor officially confirmed the departure of five players on Thursday, including Aleks Pihler. At the same time, sports director Marko Šuler announced reinforcements. “We will add approximately four or five players to the team, which is already performing very well on the field. Having six players in the season’s ideal eleven is proof that we have a good starting point and that we have laid successful foundations. We want to see Maribor continue performing as it has in recent months,” Marko Šuler told the club’s official website.
The sports director of Štajercev also revealed high expectations for the new season, with Maribor aiming for the double crown domestically and – according to Marko Šuler – at least reaching the final round of qualifications in one of the European cups.
Marko Šuler: “Maribor’s Spring”
“I believe that we will welcome three newcomers to the team at the first gathering. Then there will be some further additions, and I believe that by June 17, when we leave for the training camp in Moravske Toplice, we will have almost the entire team ready to attack the double crown. Additionally, we will aim to reach at least the play-off of one of the European competitions,” added Korošec, who also reviewed the 2023/24 season.
“We can divide it into two parts. The unsuccessful start, the poor opening, which created a gap that was difficult to close later. We had many injury problems, especially with some of the most important players who returned mid-season. Then came Maribor’s spring. With an excellent end to the season, showing the Maribor we know and want to see. The foundations for the future are promising, things are heading in the right direction. Overall, a season without a trophy is a failure. But considering all the circumstances, where we had to manage a transition simultaneously, the hardest period of assembling the team is behind us. We have the backbone, the core of the team. The way we play and what we want to be is known. This is the basis for the future, and we can certainly be much better,” said the former Slovenian international.
