Although he is already 32 years old and has had immense injury problems recently, Martin Milec continues to enjoy full support from Maribor. Such support is so significant that the full-back has actually signed a new contract with the Styrians, valid until 2026!
“We know what he means to this team and what he has meant in the past. The contract was signed some time ago, and now is the appropriate moment for its announcement. Martin appreciates all the support and is aware of the extent to which the club stood by him even in the less pleasant moments. He still has a few years of playing ahead of him and he also has allegiance,” said Marko Šuler to the club’s website.
The sports director of the purple team added regarding the player, who has played 11 matches in the Prva liga Telemach this season: “Martin Milec knows Maribor inside out; he has been there for many major successes and is the right hand of the coach, who can transmit to the team and the incoming players what Maribor is about, what it wants, and above all, where we all want to be together. The captain remains with us for at least two more seasons. I wish him as few injuries as possible, good health, so that he will be on the field with the team, where he feels best and where we need him the most.”
