The Slovenians are back in the news regarding the… Jean Karnitsnik case and Omonia’s interest.

Specifically, the website “ekipa.svet24” reports that the Slovenian defender has reached a preliminary agreement with the “Greens,” and all that remains is for the player’s transfer to be made official.

We remind you that Omonia has officially confirmed that they have made an offer to the 31-year-old player, as he appears to be the top target on their list at the moment.

We remind you that Karnitsnik has played successfully for Celje over the past four years, making 141 appearances and winning two league titles and one cup.

Here is the full report: “Zhan Karnitsnik attended training but did not take the field. This is partly because the aftereffects of the ankle injury he sustained during the national team’s match against Croatia—which is not as minor as it seemed—have not yet been resolved, but mainly because he will not sign a new contract after his current one expires on June 30. It’s no secret that discussions about a possible extension of his contract began during last season’s playoffs, but they subsequently ended without an agreement. And many are surprised that they haven’t resumed to this day…

According to our information, no such exchange of views has taken place, and there are no indications that anything will change on this matter, which means that the Slovenian international, who is currently devoting most of his time to rehabilitation, will begin to face new challenges. We have already reported that Omonia is inviting him to join its team. According to our information, an agreement in principle has already been reached, but Jan Karnicik is now waiting for an official offer from the Cypriots, in which they will set out everything they have verbally promised him.”
