Maribor Set to Welcome Experienced Coaching Duo

NK Maribor is preparing for a significant shift in its leadership following the recent returns of two key figures. Zlatko Zahović has re-joined the club as sports director, and veteran coach Darko Milanič is scheduled to return for a third time. For some time, Darko Milanič has been identified as the primary candidate for the club’s head coaching position, a preference solidified by the club’s Turkish owners, led by Acun Ilıcalı.

Zahović’s return, confirmed a few days ago, initially suggested a potential collaboration between the two experienced individuals. While Zahović was inaugurated, Milanič’s appointment was not immediately finalized. The official swearing-in is planned for noon, marking Milanič’s third time commanding the “purple” bench – a previous stint occurred six years ago.

The return represents a considerable investment of time and experience for the club. Zahović and Milanič’s reunion is anticipated to be a pivotal moment as Maribor looks ahead.
