# Harju sign a permanent deal with young defender Kajari
**Harju JK Laagri have announced that 19-year-old centre-back Enriko Kajari has joined the club on a permanent transfer after spending the second half of last season on loan.**

Kajari began the 2025 campaign with JK Tallinna Kalev, before moving to Harju Laagri late in the summer window. During his loan spell, the young defender made six top-flight appearances, bringing his total to 30 appearances in the Estonian Premium Liiga.

A product of the Flora academy, Kajari made his professional debut with Flora and has been a regular member of Estonia’s U-17 and U-19 national teams, earning multiple call-ups at youth international level.

Speaking after completing the move, Kajari expressed his satisfaction at continuing with Harju:

_“I am very happy to be able to continue with Harju JK,”_ Kajari said via the club’s official channels. _“I would like to thank the club for the trust and the opportunity to continue developing as a player. My goal is to be as useful to the team as possible and to always give my maximum. I’m really looking forward to the upcoming season.”_

Harju Laagri CEO Kalmar Liiv highlighted the club’s belief in Kajari’s long-term potential and explained the decision to secure his player rights:

_“We already see Enriko playing a strong role in the 2026 season, which is why we decided to acquire his rights. We are very excited to follow his progress heading into the new campaign – he is a player with a very sharp left foot, especially for someone playing in the defensive line.”_
