Setback for Carl Zeiss Jena: Jewel departs due to struggles in performance
FC Carl Zeiss Jena Set to Lose Talismanic Midfielder Antonio Jozanovic
FC Carl Zeiss Jena is facing a significant departure ahead of the upcoming season, with the club confirming that midfielder Antonio Jozanovic will be leaving the side and joining Borussia Mönchengladbach II. Sporting Director Miroslav Jovic disclosed that the difference in contract offers forced the club's hand, and lamented the inability to retain the young star.
The news comes as a blow to Carl Zeiss Jena, who have been tirelessly preparing their roster for a push towards the 3. Liga. Jozanovic, one of the club's most promising talents, has been a crucial part of their squad, having scored 13 goals in just 18 games for the U19 team during the past season.
Despite his impressive performances and having been earmarked for the professional team, Jozanovic's tenure at Carl Zeiss Jena is now coming to an end, with the young midfielder set to depart when his contract expires on June 30, 2025[1][2]. The prospect of enhancing his career and potentially impressing Bundesliga squads might have played a significant role in Jozanovic's decision to seek a new challenge.
Carl Zeiss Jena's loss could potentially be another team's gain. Keep up with the latest news and transfers at the "Thuringian General" to find out who might be joining the club in the near future[3].
