Notes
  1. ^
    Agim Ibraimi signed a two-and-a-half year contract with Kazakhstan Premier League side Astana,[51] with the contract reportedly being worth a total of €2.25 million. Astana acquired the player as a free agent,[51] with Ibraimi, whose contract with Maribor was set to expire in 2019,[52] presumably buying out his contract for an undisclosed fee.[30][31]
