Union Berlin signs Marin Ljubicic to enhance struggling attack

Union Berlin, struggling with the worst attack in the Bundesliga, has signed Croatian forward Marin Ljubicic from Austrian club LASK to enhance their offensive capabilities. The 22-year-old, who scored 28 goals in 75 matches at LASK, is expected to provide much-needed support, especially following a scoreless draw against Leipzig that highlighted the team's scoring woes. Union's sporting director praised Ljubicic as a 'big talent' whose speed and technical skills will benefit the team's attack. The transfer fee for Ljubicic is reported to be €4.5 million, and discussions continue regarding the acquisition of forward Maximilian Philipp from Freiburg. Under new coach Steffen Baumgart, Union has failed to score in four of their first five matches, indicating a pressing need for improvement. Ljubicic's arrival is seen as a crucial step in addressing the team's ongoing offensive challenges.
