Nikola Crnoglavac leaves Partizan for AEK Athens
The departure of RK Partizan’s entire Management Board due to the club’s inability to secure funding for the coming period, followed by the exit of head coach Raul Gonzalez, has triggered a further exodus of players from the Serbian champions.
Nikola Crnoglavac is the latest player to leave the Belgrade club. The experienced 33-year-old right back, who has been Partizan’s top scorer and one of their key players over the past three seasons, is moving to Athens, where he will join AEK and compete for domestic trophies against Olympiacos.
Crnoglavac arrived at Partizan in 2023 and quickly established himself as one of the team’s most important players. The left-handed shooter also has international experience, having made his debut for the Serbian national team at the EHF EURO 2018 in Croatia.
His departure follows that of another Serbian international, Miloš Kos, who is set to continue his career with German Bundesliga side HSG Wetzlar.
The German club is desperately looking for reinforcements after a disastrous start to the season, which has left them battling at the bottom of the Bundesliga standings.
