Žiga Frelih will play for Slovenian champions NK Celje after his two-year contract at FC Spartak Trnava expired. The club announced the move through its official channels. After signing the contract, Žiga Frelih stated that he is proud to become part of a club which is currently the most organized in Slovenia, adding that returning with international experience means Celje is now seen as a positive development in a player's career.

Žiga Frelih, who left Spartak Trnava after two seasons, is currently without a club. According to information from his homeland, the former Spartak player is training with the squad of last season's Slovenian champions, NK Celje. The prominent portal transfermarkt.com has also reported NK Celje's interest in the former goalkeeper of Trnava and Michalovce. Žiga Frelih stated on social media that the time has come for new challenges and new stories.

Žiga Frelih will leave FC Spartak Trnava after the current season because he did not reach an agreement with the club on continuing their cooperation. Frelih stated that he has already had some talks and has offers, but there is nothing he would definitively accept yet. He also clarified that this does not involve Slovak clubs and that he is allowing himself until the end of May.

Žiga Frelih announced on social media that his time at FC Spartak Trnava will conclude after the summer. Frelih stated that it was not easy and he thought about it for a long time, but at that moment it was probably the only option. He expressed gratitude to the club, coaches, physiotherapists, the sports director, and Martin Bohunický.
