Primorje is one of those Slovenian clubs that have experienced practically everything. One of those that have been both in heaven and in hell. Currently, Ajdovci are experiencing good moments. The red-and-black team sealed their return to the Prva liga Telekom on Sunday, after 13 long years, they will again compete in the strongest Slovenian football league.
But who is actually joining the elite? Primorje was once considered a highly respected member of the Slovenian football top league. After all, the club from the city of the bora wind spent 18 seasons in the highest tier of competition in our country! Only Maribor, Celje, Gorica, Olimpija, Koper, Domžale, and Rudar from Velenje have more seasons.
Primorje has played 616 matches in the 1. SNL so far. They recorded 233 wins, 157 draws, and 226 losses. Ajdovci scored 888 goals and conceded 809. In total, they earned 824 points. They have never been champions, but they have finished as runners-up twice. The first time was in 1997, and the second time was in 2002.
Boško Županović is also involved
In 2011, NK Primorje closed its doors due to debts, and local football enthusiasts founded the Ajdovščina Football Club. The latter had to start from the bottom, and today it is back on top. Ajdovci adopted the name Primorje again in 2016.
It’s worth noting that Primorje’s promotion to the Prva liga Telekom was led by the young expert Milan Anđelković, a former player of Ljubljana’s Olimpija. Additionally, the club’s backbone is none other than Boško Županović. The former sports director of Koper has caused quite a stir in the Slovenian top league scene in the past, and it will undoubtedly be interesting to see what the future holds.
Primorje’s promotion to the Prva liga Telekom is thanks to success on the field, but many believe that organizationally, the Ajdovci club is not yet where it should be to play in the 1. SNL. Well, when the elite comes knocking, you certainly don’t refuse. What the 2024/25 season will bring, though… Let’s wait and see.
