Svit Sešlar puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at NK Celje, and it is not being withdrawn.

Terms done: Florjan Jevšenak is going
Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Slavia Mozyr waiting with a shirt. Nobody at NK Celje is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

A $630.0K sale, and a town that did not want it
Žan-Luk Leban has gone, the accounts have $630.0K in them, and the supporters have the feeling of having been sold something themselves. Good business and a good decision are not always the same thing.

NK Celje turn down Olimpija Ljubljana for Mark Zabukovnik
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

NK Celje close the window on a squad of their own making
6 in and 8 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Business is business: Žan-Luk Leban goes
NK Maribor paid $630.0K and NK Celje took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

A step back for Benjamin Verbič at NK Celje
Somebody has moved past him. It is not a dropping and it is worse than one, because a dropping is about a Saturday and this is about where he stands.

NK Celje have started building around Svit Sešlar
He used to be one of the options. He is now one of the men the options are picked around, and the change happened quietly enough that only the dressing room noticed on the day.
