Trabzonspor is still waiting to get sporting performance from Stefan Savic. The Montenegrin defender who joined the Turkish club last summer has only played three games so far this season. A problem that has become a puzzle due to his high salary.
Upon arrival at Trabzonspor, Savic signed a contract by which he was linked to the Turkish Super League club for the next three seasons. A firm bet on a player who had been competing in LaLiga EA Sports and that was a way to raise the level of the team’s coach, Senol Günes. A signing that, although he arrived free from Atlético de Madrid, was convinced with a contract of up to 3 million euros.
449 minutes in just six games
The footballer made his debut with his new team in the match against Rapid Vienna, playing the 90 minutes of the first leg of the 3rd Preliminary Round of the Europa League, a match that would lead to 45 minutes against Sivasspor in the Turkish Super League. A beginning that seemed promising, until something began to fail, a muscle strain in the upper front part of his left leg, and missed the second leg against Rapid Vienna in which they were eliminated from the Conference League.
Since then they have only played one other tie against Saint Gallen in which they were also eliminated in the second match. And after more muscle problems against Eyuspor when feeling tension in the right upper muscleparticipated in two draws against Besiktas and Kayserispor which were their last two games. Since then, he has missed nine straight games with a left upper back muscle injury. A series of problems that It has only allowed him to play 449 minutes spread over six games. Data that does not encourage optimism.
In Spain for a new diagnosis
Now, according to the Turkish media Spor Arena, Stefan Savic would have returned to Spain to have a new opinion with his doctor when he was at Atlético de Madrid. A player who will also miss Trabzonspor’s next match against Kasimpasa on Friday at 6:00 p.m. A signing that, so far, has cost his club half a million euros per game.
