NK Olimpija Ljubljana coaching turnover continues

Entities: NK Olimpija Ljubljana · Jugoslav Trenčovski · Admir Bristić · Rudar Velenje · Leicester City

Overview

After Mišo Brečko’s two‑week spell ended in late July, 49‑year‑old Vasil Trenčevski was installed as head coach in an effort to halt a disastrous start. Just days later, on 1 August, the club announced a further change, appointing Jugoslav Trenčovski as the new manager. Trenčovski praised Olimpija’s history, the quality of the squad and the need for a supportive atmosphere, stressing fan backing and youth development as keys to a top‑table finish.

At the same time, 23‑year‑old Bosnian striker Admir Bristić, who netted 15 goals in 30 league games, is set to join English side Leicester City for a fee of €1.7‑2 million pending a medical. Both the coaching shift and the high‑profile transfer underline Olimpija’s intent to rebuild and compete strongly in the upcoming Slovenian league campaign.
