Ghanaian midfielder Eric Taylor has joined Aluminij on loan from Slovenian giants NK Maribor until the end of the year, Sportsworldghana.com can confirm.
The 24-year old midfielder moves to Aluminij because coach Feđa Dudić did not have him in his plans. He moved to Ljudski Vrt from Norwegian second-league club Kongsvinger in the summer.
Maribor’s main personnel decision-maker, Cemu Basgul, was able to arrange only a loan for the player, who remains under contract with Maribor until 2028.
“He is leaving Ljudski Vrt, but remains in Slovenia. Eric Taylor is on loan to Aluminij, after an agreement between the two clubs was reached, the 24-year-old midfielder will play for the team from Kidričevo until the end of the 2026 calendar year,” they wrote on the purple club’s social media.
Upon his arrival, Taylor expressed his happiness that the two clubs had reached an agreement, stating his belief that he could help Aluminij in their effort to remain in the first league and their attempt to win the cup trophy.
Taylor appeared in 12 league matches for Maribor this season (spending 362 minutes on the pitch), scoring one goal (against Bravo) and providing two assists.
