Wednesday evening brought the official confirmation of news that we recently exclusively announced on our website: Slovenian coach Simon Rožman is no longer the coach of Sarajevo! “Sarajevo Football Club has terminated the cooperation with the former coach Simon Rožman and his coaching staff. The decision was made at Rožman’s initiative and following an analysis of achieved results, ambitions, and club plans,” announced from Koševo Stadium, where Simon Rožman served for less than a year.
Sarajevo was well-prepared for Rožman’s departure and shortly thereafter introduced a new coach to the public. This is Zoran Zekić, a 50-year-old professional from neighboring Croatia, who most recently managed Osijek and previously worked in Moldova, where he coached the esteemed Šerif. Sarajevo announced his arrival interestingly at 23:55!
Zoran Zekić appeared in Slovenian public discourse a few years ago as a potential candidate to coach Maribor. This was in 2019, when there were discussions at Ljudski vrt about potentially replacing Darko Milanič, with then-sports director Zlatko Zahović reportedly meeting with Zekić several times. However, no agreement was ultimately reached.
