Anton Žlogar, the new coach of the senior team of Mura, upon arriving in Murska Sobota, emphasized that he wants to see Matjaž Kek Jr. as his assistant. It seems increasingly likely that his wish will come true. Not only that, but it appears that Mura has already found a replacement for the coach’s son, who achieved excellent results with the youth team of the Prekmurje giant in the fall.
After the initial part of the 2023/24 season, Mura leads the standings in the Junior Eon NextGen League. For many, it will undoubtedly be disappointing that the architect of these good results will move to the senior team. However, youth football is primarily intended for the development of personnel, both players and coaches. Mura has accepted this, and Kek Jr. will work with the senior team. According to our information, his successor is more or less already chosen.
As we have learned, Darjan Slavic, a former player of Mura, will continue Kek’s work. The broader Slovenian football public also got to know him as the “acting” coach of the senior team in the period between Grabić’s departure and Vermezović’s arrival. Even when the experienced Belgrader took over, Slavic remained part of the coaching staff of the senior team, and now he will simply switch roles with Kek. Kek will become an assistant, and Slavic will be the head coach of the youth team.
