Ex-Maccabi Tel Aviv Striker Predrag Rajkovic Returns to FK Čukarički
Predrag Rajkovic, a former standout for Maccabi Tel Aviv in the early 2020s, is set to rejoin FK Čukarički, the Serbian club where he first gained prominence before his move to the Israeli team. Rajkovic's contract with FC Basel has reportedly been terminated, paving the way for his return to Čukarički.
Serbian media are buzzing about the transfer, with one outlet hailing it as "undoubtedly the club's biggest deal of the summer transfer window." The media anticipates seeing if Rajkovic can meet expectations in the coming months.
Rajkovic scored 11 goals in 15 league appearances for Čukarički before transferring to Maccabi Tel Aviv in February 2022 under coach Mladen Krstajić. During the past season, he was loaned to Maccabi Haifa, where he scored three goals in 18 appearances but also suffered an injury and found himself on the fringes of the team's rotation. He now aims to recapture the form that made him a sought-after forward.
