Sometimes, taking a step back is necessary to make two steps forward. When Žan Mauricio left Olimpija over the summer, he not only left behind the jersey of a Slovenian giant but also his opportunities for numerous European adventures. Seeking regular playing time, he bid farewell to Ljubljana and moved to Lendava.
Žan Mauricio has appeared in goal for Nafta five times. With the recent knee issues of his Hungarian colleague Zsombor Senka, who had to leave the pitch at halftime during a match against Domžale, it seems that the young Ljubljana native might become the number one goalkeeper once again. If he stays in Lendava.
However, just a few weeks after his arrival in Prekmurje, Žan Mauricio has already caught the eye of a prominent European club. The 19-year-old goalkeeper is now under the scrutiny of Legia, the Polish giants from Warsaw, where Slovenian forward Blaž Kramar also plays.
While it is too early to say if a transfer will happen, the interest is real. According to our sources, Legia is impressed with what they’ve seen so far and will continue to monitor Žan Mauricio closely. Who knows, there might even be an official offer from the 15-time Polish champions for this promising teenager. The summer transfer window will close in five days, so we might find out soon.
