Ljubomir was then persuaded to become a sports director for SG Flensburg-Handewitt but as a patch on the wounds IFK and Flensburg made an agreement which meant that the team had a certain number of friendly matches against each other plus IFK players had the chance to go to Flensburg and train with them (during certain periods).
The arrangement between IFK and Flensburg allowed for Ljubomir's appointment as sports director for SG Flensburg-Handewitt, along with a set number of friendly matches between the teams and opportunities for IFK players to train with Flensburg during specific times.
