He scored a beautiful goal for Slavia, but he won’t help Legia in the rematch. Juranovic leaves for Celtic
Josip Juranovic played against Slavia in the Europa League playoffs in Eden on Thursday night, but he may have already known it was his last game for Legia. Because his transfer to Celtic should be completed soon.
Josip Juranović played against Slavia in the Europa League play-off in Eden on Thursday evening, but before the game he already knew that it was his last match for Legia. In fact, his transfer to Celtic should be completed soon.
Legia fans will want to forget about the 26-year-old halfback very quickly. He produced one of the Polish team’s two shots, both of which ended in goals.
Moreover, Juranović’s shot was an exclusive one. While still in his own half, he worked a high ball and took it all the way to the Slavia goal. A few metres in front of the penalty area, he stretched and sent an incredible projectile into Ondrej Kolar’s net.
But it was a farewell to Legia. The transfer with Celtic was already agreed before the match, all that is left is to undergo a medical examination and sign the contract. He should pass the check-up on Friday.
The Croatian footballer played for Hajduk Split for 6 long seasons, before last season he moved to Legia Warsaw. There he played 30 competitive matches, scored 1 goal and assisted 8.
Now he moves to Scotland to play for Celtic at the start of the new season. The Green and Whites advanced through Jablonec in the third round of the Europa League, but still have to knock out Alkmaar in the play-offs. In the first match they beat their Dutch opponents 2:0.
