The 23-year-old left back from Croatia, Ante Ivankovic, who has played over 100 games for RK Celje, has been bought by TVB Stuttgart and will join them with immediate effect.
It’s not common for handball teams to buy out players, but it has happened now. TVB Stuttgart has bought out the young left back, Ante Ivankovic from RK Celje, as confirmed by Stuttgart on their website earlier today. Ivankovic has signed a contract until the summer of 2026.
– I’m really looking forward to my time in Stuttgart and being able to play in the strongest league in the world. This is a childhood dream coming true for me. I would like to help the team as quickly as possible in order to achieve the club’s goals together. I’m excited to get to know the club and the entire environment, said Ivankovic about the move on Stuttgarts website.
The left back has scored 37 goals in 10 games so far in the Champions League and could make a difference for TBV Stuttgart if they aim to stay in the Bundesliga.
