Čavor returns to Slovenia, now with Zorman and a club aiming for the Champions League

Slovan was a household name in the great Yugoslavia, having become the national champion in 1980, while a year later they reached the Champions League final when they were dethroned by Magdeburg. The Ljubljana club has already brought in Slovenian national team players Miljan Vujović and Domeno Tajnik, and will probably bring back another Montenegrin who decided to defend the colors of Slovenia - Mirko Latković.

After a decade and the strongest league in the world, it's time to return to Slovenia - Montenegrin handball player Stefan Čavor will wear the jersey of that country's champions, the Slavs, starting next season.

As announced by the Ljubljana club, the right-back of the Lions and German Wetzlar has signed a contract until the summer of 2028.

Čavor is a legend of the aforementioned Bundesliga club, the top scorer in the history of the "greens", but after ten years in Germany he is ready for new challenges.

And it seems that Slovan's ambitious project is ideal for a new beginning. This is a club led by Slovenian coach Uroš Zorman, who plans to play a prominent role in the expanded Champions League next season.

Slovan was a well-known name in the greater Yugoslavia, becoming the national champion in 1980, while a year later it reached the Champions League final when it was dethroned by Magdeburg.

Last season, they became the champion of Slovenia for the first time, and now they want to secure a place in the EHF elite with a new title. It seems that everyone in Ljubljana believes in such an outcome, so before Čavor, two Slovenian national team players Miljan Vujović and Domen Tajnik signed for Slovan.

The goalkeeper from Cetinje, who chose Slovenia before Montenegro, arrives from Stuttgart, Germany, and the center back from Pelister.

According to the "Ekipa24" portal, the Slovan jersey could be worn next season by another Montenegrin who has decided to defend the colors of Slovenia - Mirko Latković.
