The 2024/25 season has also started in Italian Serie B, with several Slovenians making their mark. Here’s a summary of the opening round:
- Pisa features three Slovenian players, but only one was in action during the first round. Jan Mlakar surprisingly stayed on the bench, Mihe Trdana was absent from the squad, and Žan Jevšenak, a recent arrival from Lisbon’s Benfica, played the first half. Despite Spezia scoring twice, they did not secure a win. Pisa, without any Slovenian players on the field in the second half, scored twice and managed a 2:2 draw.
- Südtirol hosted Modena in Bolzano and secured their first win of the season with a 2:1 result. Slovenian international Jasmin Kurtić contributed by starting the game and playing until the 78th minute. The home team clinched the victory with a goal in the last minute of regular time.
On Sunday, several clubs with Slovenian players will be in action:
- Luka Krajnc will play at home for Catanzaro against Sassuolo.
- Žan Majer will be with Cremonese visiting Cosenza.
- Frosinone, with Tjaš Begić recently transferred, will face Sampdoria at home.
- Reggiana, reinforced by Leo Štulac, will host Mantova.
