Birżebbuġa St. Peter’s FC Snap Up 6’4″ Target Man Stipe Tokić & Fiorentina-Trained Defender Mattia Santi
VBET MALTA PREMIER TRANSFER BOMBSHELL: Birżebbuġa St. Peter’s FC have thrown down a massive gauntlet ahead of their top-flight debut after completing a sensational double transfer swoop for Bosnian-Croatian hitman Stipe Tokić and Italian defensive star Mattia Santi!
The Blues mean absolute business ahead of the new campaign, adding devastating physical firepower up front and Serie A academy quality at the back to light up the VBET Malta Premier!
6’4″ AERIAL MONSTER LEADS THE LINE!
Standing at an imposing 1.93m (6ft 4in), Stipe Tokić is pure striker muscle! The 23-year-old powerhouse forward arrives in Malta following battle-tested spells across Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia with NK Dugopolje, and most recently in Italian Serie D with Sassari Latte Dolce.
Known for his terrifying aerial presence, fierce work ethic, and ruthless eye for goal, Tokić gives Birżebbuġa an unstoppable target man capable of bullying opposition defenders from day one.
FIORENTINA ACCELERATION AT THE BACK!
In another massive statement of intent, Birżebbuġa have landed Italian defender Mattia Santi, a player forged in top-tier tactical setups!
Santi spent four key developmental years in the prestigious academy of Serie A giants Fiorentina after starting out at Padova. The versatile operator went on to test himself in Italian professional football with Vicenza in Serie B, alongside valuable spells with Virtus Verona in Lega Pro, Este, and United Borgoricco Campetra.
Capable of playing both right-back and central defence, Santi brings high-level tactical intelligence, speed, and defensive discipline to the Blues’ backline.
“DETERMINATION, QUALITY & UNMATCHED AMBITION”
Birżebbuġa St. Peter’s bosses were left ecstatic after sealing the double deal, officially welcoming both marquee stars to the Blue Family.
