Overview

  • The 21-year-old striker joins on a season-long loan from Cardiff City, with KSC holding an option to make the move permanent.
  • Sporting director Mario Eggimann said the club had tracked Simic for years and valued his robust build, technical skill and instinct in front of goal.
  • Simic’s career so far spans six countries and six professional clubs, including Lokomotiva Zagreb, Red Bull Salzburg, FC Zürich, KV Kortrijk and Cardiff City, with appearances in the Champions League and UEFA Youth League.
  • Following a mixed spell in Belgium cut short by injury, his market value fell from €6 million to €2 million, prompting a move aimed at rebuilding his form.
  • Simic said he is eager to inject goals and energy into KSC’s attack as he targets a breakthrough season in the 2. Bundesliga.
