Born on 20th December 1994, Kenan Bajric is a celebrated defender hailing from Slovenia. Primarily being central to the defence for Slovan Bratislava, this 29-year-old stands tall at an imposing 6ft 2in (or 1.9m for those familiar with metric measurements). He tips the scales at around 12st 8lb (or 80 kilograms), a testament to the athletic prowess synonymous with his position on the pitch. On matchdays, you'll find Bajric proudly donning the number 12 jersey, be it representing his club, or playing for the Slovenia national team.
As per the most recent data on Transfermarkt, Bajric's market value stands at approximately £1m. His contract with Slovan Bratislava is scheduled to run until 30th June 2028.
In July 2013, Bajric began his journey in professional football with Olimpija Ljubljana, a club in the PrvaLiga based in his home country, Slovenia. After honing his skills and establishing his place as a central figure in the defence, Bajric made a significant move in January 2018 to Slovan Bratislava, a team in Slovakia's First Football League. This transfer came with a notable price tag, touted to be around £540k.
Bajric's journey saw a detour in July 2021, when he went on loan to Pafos, a team competing in the First Division in Cyprus. His strong defensive skills were unquestionably beneficial, however by July 2023, he returned to Slovan Bratislava upon completion of his loan period.
Bajric's time with Slovan Bratislava has been marked with high-profile performances. He saw eight starts in the Champions League Qualifiers for the 2024-2025 season. Likewise, an already busy schedule was further packed with appearances in the Nations League for Slovenia in the same season, although restricted to one appearance as a substitute. His commitment to the club saw him start eight times for Slovan Bratislava in the Conference League in the 2023-2024 season, followed by two starts in the Champions League in the 2024-2025 season.
