Slovenia boasts a wealth of football talent, and among the promising young players is Kristjan Bendra. The 18-year-old Slovenian youth international is currently a member of Red Bull from Salzburg, to which he moved in 2020 after leaving ATSV Vorwärts Steyr. He has since played 200 matches in all youth categories in Austrian football and scored 49 goals, and in the new season, despite his youth, he is already making a mark in senior football.
Before he dons the shirt of the first team of the club from Mozart’s city, where, of course, there is fierce competition, it will probably be some time. For now, he is a member of Liefering, which is the B-team of Salzburg and plays in the second Austrian league. Kristjan Bendra has so far played two official matches in the senior category, and in his second match, he also made it into the statistics.
On Friday, Liefering played away at Lafnitz, where 300 spectators witnessed a total of 9 goals! The visitors won 5:4, and Kristjan Bendra had a hand in his team’s third goal. In the 33rd minute, Phillip Verhounig scored, with an assist from right-back Kristjan Bendra, who also received a yellow card at the end of the match. He played from the first to the last minute.
