Transfer targets

The paperwork begins on Svit Hočevar

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. NK Krsko have done the hard part with Olimpija Ljubljana, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Squad

Niki Radovič 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 NK Krsko this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Šimun Šintić’s goal not enough for NK Krsko

Šimun Šintić scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Bistrica, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad

Fran Stunja out for 34 days

The medical room confirms 34 days on the sidelines for Fran Stunja, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

The dugout

Jure Zupan gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

This league is too small for Nik Zrnec

He is doing things on a Saturday afternoon that nobody around him can answer, which is flattering for about one season and a problem after that. NK Krsko will not keep him by pretending otherwise.

Market

Talks stall between NK Krsko and Nik Zrnec

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad

Too much change too quickly at NK Krsko

11 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

The dugout

Benjamin Oblak answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 1‑2, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

Match

NK Krsko run riot against Jadran Dekani

4‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings

Both of them Patrik Veselić's — 8.19

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.19, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Player ratings

A brace, and Sven Opačić takes the afternoon — 7.88

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Sven Opačić provided it, and the 7.88 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad

Nik Zrnec arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Nik Zrnec has, at NK Krsko, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Transfer targets

Taj Rožič Šuligoj due for a NK Krsko medical

Everything agreed with ND Gorica, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad

A falling-out at NK Krsko

Sven Opačić and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Transfer targets

NK Krsko rebuffed over Nenad Damjanoski

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. NK Celje have kept their man, and NK Krsko go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

The terraces

One of their own: Sven Opačić

He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Market

NK Krsko promote Vid Stojanovic from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Vid Stojanovic has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Player ratings

Both jobs done by Niki Radovič — 7.20

A midfielder is measured on whether the team functions when he is on the pitch, which is nearly impossible to see and completely obvious in retrospect. 16 actions, 7.20, and a manager who will not be substituting him again in a hurry.

Squad

Marko Zalokar signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Marko Zalokar commits to NK Krsko for another 2 years.

Squad

Words exchanged at NK Krsko

Sven Opačić and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Mark Strajnar

NK Krsko asked and Primorje said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match

NK Krsko come up short against Triglav Kranj

Triglav Kranj left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Market

Eyes on Mihajlo Maletić again

The phone has started ringing about Mihajlo Maletić again, and this time the name on the line is Bistrica. NK Krsko are listening politely and promising nothing.

The dugout

Marko Zalokar gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Words at NK Krsko training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jure Zupan 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.

Market

Talks stall between NK Krsko and Marko Zalokar

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

In brief

  • Market Nobody at NK Krsko has picked up the phone to Rok Gorenc
  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • Transfer targets A loan move for Žiga Kranjc is in the works
