Official confirmation is not yet available, but unofficially, the rumors are growing louder: Mura has finally found a business partner or investor from abroad who will assist the club from Murska Sobota with their financial resources on the path to better times.

Now, the agreement has apparently been reached, and unless a giant turn of events occurs, George Juncaj will soon be introduced to the public as the new business partner of Mura!

George Juncaj is not a newcomer to the Slovenian football scene. The wealthy owner of a club in the USA called Michigan Stars made a similar deal with Gorica at the beginning of last year. He arrived in Novo Gorica with ambitious plans, including settling past debts, bringing in some reinforcements, and hiring the iconic Edy Reja as a coach. Despite this, Gorica was relegated from the Prva liga Telemach, and George Juncaj quickly departed – he wasn’t interested in the 2. SNL.
The old saying goes that the third time’s a charm, but George Juncaj will undoubtedly hope that his second attempt in Slovenian football will be a success. What his arrival at the Fazanerija means for Mura as a whole is impossible to know. But if the agreement is indeed reached, as well-informed sources claim, then everything will soon be clear.
