Stuttgart Surge re-sign former College Player

Shortly before the European League of Football finally kicks off its fifth season, Stuttgart Surge has announced two more roster moves. 

Defensive back Marko Vidackovic signs a new contract until the end of the season. The 23-year-old began his football journey with the Stuttgart Surge in 2015 before moving to the USA in 2017. Here he played two years at Lincoln High School. He then attended the NCAA Division 1 University of Oregon for three years. 

In 2024, Vidackovic moved back home and joined Stuttgart Surge. Similar to the Oregon Ducks, he also showed a lot of potential in the ELF. Last season, he played six games as a backup.
