However, things could change. Rui Pedro can return to the team, but only if he signs a new contract. “Olimpija is already working on his replacement. We have already agreed on everything in 90 percent. If Rui Pedro stays, he is welcome. We want him to extend the contract. Let him stay for another two years.

Igor Barišić disclosed that both are foreigners. “Both have European passports,” said Igor Barišić, revealing that one of them comes from Germany. Olimpija’s business director added that they are 22 and 23 years old.
