This week, we exclusively revealed that Mura has made it clear to four footballers that they do not have a future in Murska Sobota. The list of players released includes Srđan Spiridonović, Gal Kurež, Mark Strajnar, and Anel Zulić, with the first of them already leaving Fazanerija. Oskar Drobne explained before Saturday’s match against Maribor why this decision was made.
“If you’re interested, there had long been an agreement with Spiridonović that he would leave Mura. Now, since he doesn’t feel good here and we have nothing from him, we’ve parted ways; this was not a consequence of the result in Celje. We had to separate. The player is talented, but he has given too little for Mura,” explained Oskar Drobne at a press conference, who recently replaced Anton Žlogar in Murska Sobota.
Oskar Drobne: “The club counts on everyone, but…”
The former coach of Rogaška continued regarding the other mentioned trio: “As for the other players, the club’s decision is to offer more opportunities to younger players, and we have our representatives to consider. This is primarily why what has been written is somewhat misleading. It’s not that we don’t count on the boys; the club counts on everyone. However, there are certain things that need to be… not cut. Simply put, we have too many players. We have 26 footballers, and the current situation is such that we have a very broad squad.”
Oskar Drobne also confirmed that the loaned players do not have a long-term future with the black-and-whites, which means that Mark Strajnar and Anel Zulić will sooner or later, most likely in the winter transfer window, return to their clubs. Strajnar to Maribor and Zulić to the Danish Viborg.
