Marked for Marco Russo

Squad13 Sep 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Alvin Arrondel

33 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Sibenik lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market13 Sep 2027

Marcos Gómez asks to leave Sibenik

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match11 Sep 2027

Marco Russo wins it after the whistle should have gone

94 minutes played. Marco Russo found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and NK Varazdin went from a point to nothing inside one movement.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Kamil Jakóbczyk keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Sibenik may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Real improvement from Daniel Rigge at Sibenik

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Daniel Rigge is 21, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Tempers go at Sibenik

Luka Šimunović was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match11 Sep 2027

Sibenik get the job done against NK Varazdin

A 2‑1 win over NK Varazdin, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

The terraces13 Sep 2027

The crowd has taken to Damjan Markulin

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Player ratings13 Sep 2027

Damjan Markulin was the difference for Sibenik

Marked 7.64. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

Squad6 Sep 2027

Alvin Arrondel damages knee ligaments — 41 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 41 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Market6 Sep 2027

Dheimison hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Sibenik can pretend not to have heard.

Squad6 Sep 2027

Dheimison: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Sibenik have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Match4 Sep 2027

5 matches without a win for Sibenik

The run now stands at 5, and the questions being asked around Sibenik are no longer polite ones.

Squad6 Sep 2027

Luka Šimunović in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Sibenik this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad6 Sep 2027

Words at Sibenik training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Benjamin Jeannot is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Loan watch6 Sep 2027

Husein Sumbuljević counts the days

“I watch every Sibenik game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Rotor runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Match4 Sep 2027

Sibenik come up short against Lucko

Lucko left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings6 Sep 2027

Marcos Gómez never got going

5.15 on the card. Some afternoons a footballer looks like a man who has only just been introduced to the game, and this was one of them.

Market24 Aug 2026

Naftan join the queue for Marcos Gómez

Add another name to the list: Naftan have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Marcos Gómez. The answer from Sibenik has not changed — yet.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Florent Stevance in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Sibenik this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Toni Španja falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad24 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Marco Russo

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Marco Russo, and the manager let it.

Squad24 Aug 2026

14 new faces, and Sibenik are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Match22 Aug 2026

Point won or two lost for Sibenik?

Ninety minutes, no goals, and the argument started before the car park emptied: a point gained, or two thrown away against Sesvete? Both sides of it will still be going on Thursday.
