Luxol St. Andrews FC Malta is proud to announce the appointment of Marko Rajic as Head Senior Coach, marking a defining step in the club’s ambitious plan.

Marko Rajic is a UEFA ‘A’ Elite licensed football coach with 23 years of coaching experience. For the past nine years he has been a cornerstone of Luxol St. Andrew’s Academy in Malta, where he serves as Technical Coordinator — overseeing continuity and club philosophy across the competitive teams from U15 to U21 — and as Head Coach of the U15 side. Under his guidance, Luxol’s youth teams have claimed multiple honours, including the Section A League and Knock-Out double at U15 level in 2023/24. Prior to Luxol, Marko coached at Hamrun Spartans’ School of Excellence and built his reputation in Serbia with senior and youth roles at Sloga FC and Jagodina FC, where he helped develop Serbian international Predrag Rajković.

Central to that vision is a renewed commitment to youth. Luxol St. Andrews will continue to invest in its academy and player pathway, ensuring local talent has a clear route into senior football and forms the backbone of the squad being built.

“I am honoured to continue my Luxol St. Andrews FC journey at such an exciting moment for the club,” said Coach Rajic. “The ambition here is clear. I look forward to working closely with our players, staff and youth setup to build a side that competes at the highest level in Maltese football.”

Capt. Nigel James Dunkerley St. Andrews FC Vice-President and Mr. Jason Falzon Chairman of Luxol Sports Club both added: “Marko’s appointment reflects everything we stand for as a club ambition, identity, and belief in our young players. Over the next seasons we will build and develop a squad capable of challenging any team, while continuing to invest in the development of our youth.”

Coach Rajic will begin work immediately on player recruitment, pre-season preparations, and the integration of academy prospects into senior training. The club looks forward to welcoming supporters, partners and the wider football community along for the journey ahead.
