This hungry young gun is on loan from Cardiff City, but there's a catch - the Badensians have a purchase option up their sleeve [📝].
Simic's most recent stop was with Belgian club KV Kortrijk, but injuries limited him to a modest 143 minutes of action. Prior to Kortrijk, he honed his skills under Lokomotive Zagreb and then moved to Red Bull Salzburg, where his talent landed him multiple loan deals.
"From the get-go, we could see that Roko's raring to tackle his new gig with KSC," shared KSC's managing director, Mario Eggimann, referring to the towering 1.90-meter striker. "Given our previous encounters with him, we knew he's got game. He's a modern center forward with a tough physique, solid technique, and an uncanny knack for finding the back of the net."
