Ante Matej Jurić Returns to Croatia with Big Ambitions!
Imagine your club goes bankrupt and you’re left without a contract. That’s exactly what happened to 22-year-old striker Ante Matej Jurić, who after a turbulent season in Italy playing for Brescia, has now signed with HNK Rijeka.
Brescia – The Club That Went Bankrupt, But Not Jurić
Brescia, the Italian club where Jurić spent last season, went bankrupt. This left him without a club but not without ambition. He played 32 matches for Brescia, scoring 3 goals and providing 3 assists. Jurić says he improved tactically and worked with quality coaches, but unfortunately, the club couldn’t survive financially.
Back to Croatia – Rijeka Welcomes Him with Open Arms
Rijeka recognized his talent and potential. He has already trained with the team and is now officially presented as their new player. Jurić is optimistic and hopes Rijeka will be back at the top of the Croatian league.
Career by the Numbers
Before moving to Italy, Jurić played for Gorica, where in 51 appearances he scored 5 goals and made 4 assists. He notably scored goals that secured victories against Hajduk and Dinamo in the autumn of 2021.
