Terengganu Football Club’s Ivan Mamut Returns to Action
The wait is finally over for Turtles Squad fans as Ivan Mamut, the club’s import striker, has arrived in Terengganu after a long break due to an Achilles tendon injury in his left leg.
The Road to Recovery
Mamut, a tall Croatian-born player, had to take an extended break for almost a year for surgery and treatment overseas. He was also granted permission to undergo his recuperation period in Croatia for more comfort. After a long wait, Mamut finally returned to Terengganu Football Club (TFC) yesterday, bringing relief and good news to the football fans of Terengganu who have long missed seeing him on the field.
Preparing for the Malaysia Cup Semi-Final
Mamut’s presence is hoped to help sharpen the attacking line of the Turtles Squad as they prepare for the Malaysia Cup semi-final match and the remaining matches in the Super League. The Turtles Squad, coached by head coach Badrul Afzan Razali, is currently in fourth place in the Super League with 24 points.
Mamut’s Impressive Record
Last season, Mamut had an impressive record, scoring 23 goals from 35 appearances, including in the 2023 AFC Cup. His return will strengthen TFC’s attacking lineup alongside their two other import players, Ismaheel Akinade and Nelson Bonilla. The team hopes he recovers quickly and can play in the Malaysia Cup semi-final match against Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) at the Gong Badak Stadium on January 17.
