The former AFC Leopards defender could make his debut for Swedish outfit Vojvodina after being included in the side’s travelling squad to Amsterdam to take on Ajax in the Europa League qualifiers.
Sichenje was included in the matchday squad for Vojvodina’s first match of the season but did not get off the bench against Tekstilac Odzaci.
The former AFC Leopards defender joined the club on loan from AIK earlier this month in search of more regular game time, having struggled to break into the team.
Last season, he capped off his loan spell at Finnish side KuPS FC away from his parent club AIK in style, receiving the Young Player of The Season Award. The Serbian side is set to face the record Dutch champions on Thursday in the quarterfinals of the qualifiers.
Sichenje, who recently signed a season-long loan deal from Swedish side AIK on Wednesday, July 10, has yet to make his debut for Vojvodina.
The Vojvodina squad departed Serbia on Wednesday morning, heading to Amsterdam for the highly anticipated clash.
This match marks the first meeting between Vojvodina and Ajax in recent history. Vojvodina head coach Bandović emphasized the importance of the upcoming game while also looking ahead. “This game is the most important, but as a coach, we are also thinking about the next one,” said Bandović.
Should Vojvodina triumph over Ajax, they will advance to face either Greek side Panathinaikos or Botev Plovdiv in the playoffs of the qualifiers.
The match against Ajax will be the first European encounter of the season for both clubs, and Sichenje will be hoping to make a memorable debut in this crucial fixture.
