The former midfielder plays in Cyprus and tried to get close to Paphos.

Former Hajduk player Stefan Simić, currently playing for Cypriot club Omonia, discusses Hajduk's upcoming match against Pafos in the Europa League group stage. He notes that Hajduk has already defeated Zrinjanac in their first round match and faces a challenging opponent in Pafos, who previously competed in the Champions League. Simić praises Hajduk's performance last season, highlighting their strong finish and the impact of players like Jairo and Ivan Šunjić. He acknowledges Pafos' difficulties in adapting to the top flight, including changes in coaching and the loss of key players. When asked about Hajduk's chances against Pafos, Simić compares Croatian forward Marko Livaja to Argentine legend Lionel Messi, emphasizing Livaja's importance to the team. He concludes that Hajduk has a 50-50 chance of progressing, citing their recent form and Pafos' lack of competitive matches.

The draw for the third qualifying round of the Conference League has been finalized, revealing potential opponents for Croatian clubs Varaždin and Rijeka should they advance past their respective second-round matches. The draw took place in Nyon on Thursday at 2 PM local time, determining the matchups for the upcoming rounds of European competition. If Rijeka successfully eliminates Irish side Derry City in the second round, they will face the winner of the tie between Icelandic club Stjarnan and Finnish team Ilves Tampere in the third round. Stjarnan finished third in Iceland's league last season, while Ilves Tampere narrowly missed out on the title, finishing second in Finland. Meanwhile, Varaždin faces Czech outfit Jablonec in the second round. Should they prevail, they will meet the victor of the match between Latvian side FC RFS and Icelandic club Vestri. RFS secured second place in Latvia’s league last season, while Vestri claimed the Icelandic cup. Both Rijeka and Varaždin would host their first leg matches in August, with the return fixtures scheduled for the following week. If either team fails to progress beyond the second round, their European campaign will come to an end. Earlier, Dinamo Zagreb and Hajduk Split had already learned their potential opponents in the third round of the Champions League and Europa League respectively. Dinamo, if they pass Swiss side Thun, could face the winner of one of six ties involving teams such as Armenian Ararat-Armenia, Estonian KuPS, and Israeli Hapoel Beer-Sheva. In the event of a loss against Thun, Dinamo would enter the Europa League third round facing the loser of the Vikingur Reykjavik-Hapoel Beer-Sheva tie. Hajduk, currently competing in the Europa League, faces Cypriot side Pafos in the second round. Should they win, they will take on Austrian giants RB Salzburg in the third round. Salzburg, despite not winning the league last season, remain a formidable opponent, valued significantly higher than Hajduk according to transfer market data. In the event of a defeat against Pafos, Hajduk would drop into the Conference League third round, where they would face the winner of the tie between Georgian Dinamo Tbilisi and Lithuanian Žalgiris. Both teams finished in the top four of their respective leagues last season, making them credible threats to the Croatian side. The third-round matches for both the Europa League and Conference League are set for August 6 and 13, with the home advantage determined by the draw. For Rijeka and Varaždin, the prospect of progressing further in the Conference League hinges on their performance against Derry City and Jablonec respectively. Coaches and players have expressed mixed feelings regarding these developments. Rijeka's new coach, Matjaž Kek, returned to the club after an eight-year absence, expressing confidence in his team's ability to compete against the Irish side. Meanwhile, Varaždin's coach, Nikola Šafarić, acknowledged the challenge posed by Jablonec, noting that the outcome of the tie might hinge on small mistakes. As the European campaigns unfold, the focus shifts to the performances in the second round matches. With the stakes high and the potential for dramatic twists, the coming weeks promise intense football action for Croatian fans.

Former Hajduk player Stefan Simić, currently playing for Cypriot champions Omonia, commented on Hajduk's upcoming match against Pafos in the Europa League qualifiers. He believes Marko Livaja, Hajduk's captain, is comparable to Lionel Messi in terms of impact on the field, though he acknowledges Livaja's style of play remains consistent.
