Emir Karic, who became part of SK Sturm Graz in the summer of 2024 after SV Darmstadt 98 faced relegation from the Bundesliga, is said to be in discussions with Preston North End, a club in the English second division. Despite having a contract with Graz until 2027, Karic has had limited opportunities on the field, accumulating only 371 minutes of playtime and not featuring in the Champions League. Reports suggest that Preston North End has prioritized the Austro-Bosnian as their main transfer target. The 27-year-old, whose market value is estimated at 700,000 Euros, might be considering his second move abroad following his time with Darmstadt, where he experienced both relegation and promotion in the Bundesliga. This potential transfer could offer Karic more playtime and exposure, which he has lacked while at Sturm Graz.
