Luka Krajnc’s first words as a Maribor player, where he returned after 13 years:
“I am happy to return home. It is difficult to describe the feelings also because everything happened in such a short time. When there was the possibility of moving, I had no doubts about returning to Maribor. Above all, I can’t wait to join the team and wear the purple jersey again. My story is far from over, for me this is a new beginning. I return more experienced, with useful knowledge from abroad. Since I return to my club, to my city, the motivation is even stronger and I will do everything to help the club to the best of my ability.”
The 30-year-old Slovenian defender has worn the shirts of Genoa, Cesena, Cagliari, Sampdoria, Frosinone and Catanzaro. He has signed a contract with his new club until 2026 with an option to extend for a further season.
