THW Kiel Signs Slovenian National Player Domen Makuc for 2026/27 Season

THW Kiel, commonly known as the "Zebras," has announced the signing of handball player Domen Makuc for the 2026/27 season. The 25-year-old Slovenian national player will join the team from FC Barcelona, with a contract running until June 30, 2030 [1][3][4][5].

Makuc is set to become an integral part of THW Kiel's team of the future, but specific details about his playing style, prior clubs, and exact role in the 2026/27 team are not yet available [1][3]. The transfer to THW Kiel is seen as a significant move, implying that Makuc is a promising or established player expected to contribute significantly to the team [1][3].

The signing of Makuc follows the announcement of Julian Köster's upcoming move to THW Kiel from VfL Gummersbach for the same season [2]. Köster, a German national player, has not yet signed a contract with THW Kiel, but it is expected that he will join the team as well [2].

THW Kiel is renowned for being the handball record champion, and Makuc's joining is expected to strengthen the team's roster for the upcoming season. The team will kick off the new season on Saturday against German champions Füchse Berlin in the Supercup.

Domagoj Duvnjak, currently a player at THW Kiel, will be replaced by Makuc in the 2026/27 season [1]. It is unclear at this time what specific position Makuc will play, but he is preferred by THW Kiel for the backcourt position [1].

This is the second signing for THW Kiel for the 2026/27 season, and the club is excited to welcome Makuc to the team.
