Josip Iličić has signed for Maribor in his native Slovenia following his departure from Atalanta earlier this season.
The 34-year-old had spent two spells away from the side at Atalanta after admitting struggles with his mental health.
Iličić played 11 games for Maribor in 2010 before departing for Palermo in Serie A, and he remained in Italy for the next 12 years, later joining Fiorentina and finally Atalanta.
Scoring 122 goals over that 12-year period, Iličić became one of the most recognisable faces in the Italian top-flight in the last decade.
