Muang Thong: Fowler leave and Mario Gjurovski arrives
Do things in a big way, apparently seems to be Muang Thongs slogan for the new season. After the first season without a title in five years the club increased his budget for the first time on more than 100 million Baht. With Adnan Barakat a high-quality was signed already a few weeks ago. With Mario Gjurovski the next transfer coup succeeded.If we speak of high-quality players, of course we do this it's relative to football in Thailand. In the case of Macedonian Mario Gjurovski this cachet could be even valid in relation for European football. In 2009 he was linked with Bayer Leverkusen as a successor to Toni Kroos, and was recommended to the "Werkself" by Dragoslav Stepanović. During the winter break 2010/11, Werder Bremen and TSV 1860 Munich reportedly showed interested in him.
