Hajduk's new player has arrived at Poljud.

Hajduk je vrlo blizu dovođenju Khalila Fayada (22), francuskog centralnog veznjaka, koji je već stigao u Split. Kamere MAXSporta su ih uhvatili na tribinama Poljuda tijekom utakmice Hajduka i Lokomotive u petom kolu SuperSport HNL-a. Iako je Fayad bio planiran za predstavljanje na poluvremenu, to se nije dogodilo. Njegov dolazak dodatno potvrđuje da je transfer u završnoj fazi, ali nije službeno objavljen. Francuski novinar Mohamed Toubache-Ter objavio je da Fayad dolazi u Hajduk i da će potpisati trogodišnji ugovor. Prethodno je bio povezan s poljskim Widzewom i španjolskom Almerijom, ali je izabran odlazak u Split. Fayad je prošao Montpellierovu akademiju, ima 94 nastupa za prvu momčad i 67 nastupa u Ligue 1. Ugovor s Montpellierom vrijedi do ljeta 2027., a Transfermarkt ga procjenjuje na 1,5 milijuna eura. Dolazak Fayada bi pojačao vezni red nakon odlaska Rokasa Pukštasa.

Hajduk has officially confirmed the arrival of Khalil Fayad, a 22-year-old French-born, Moroccan-national midfielder who joins the club from Montpellier. The transfer was completed in the final hours before the deadline for registering players for the Conference League, which runs until 23:59 on September 2nd. Fayad will wear the number 8 jersey and join the squad for training on Wednesday, marking his first international move in his career. Fayad, born on June 9, 2004, in Montpellier, has spent his entire professional career with Montpellier, progressing through their academy and making his senior debut at 18 during a match against Paris Saint-Germain in August 2022. He has since become a regular in Montpellier’s starting XI, accumulating 94 appearances for the club, including 67 in Ligue 1 and 20 in Ligue 2. During his time at Montpellier, he scored four goals and recorded three assists, showcasing his versatility and technical ability. His performances earned him caps for France's youth teams, representing the U-18, U-19, and U-20 national squads, with a total of 16 appearances. The transfer to Hajduk was the result of intense competition, with Spanish side Almería and Polish club Widzew Łódź also showing interest. However, Hajduk secured the deal after offering Fayad the opportunity to compete in the Conference League, a prospect unavailable to the other two clubs. According to reports from French journalist Mohamed Toubache-Ter, Montpellier had already reached agreements with both Almería and Widzew, but Fayad ultimately chose Hajduk due to the potential for European competition. Fayad is described as a versatile midfielder capable of playing multiple positions within the midfield, primarily as a central midfielder. He is right-footed and possesses excellent vision, passing accuracy, and the ability to contribute to both defense and attack. His physical attributes include a height of 172 cm, and while he may not be the most physically imposing player, his work ethic and competitive spirit have been highlighted throughout his career. In a statement released by Hajduk, Fayad expressed his excitement about joining the club, citing its rich history and passionate fans. He mentioned watching a recent victory over Lokomotiva and feeling inspired to make the move. He also praised Mathieu Acapandie, a fellow French national and former teammate, for his support and guidance during the transfer process. “I believe I can help the team become even more competitive,” Fayad said, expressing confidence in his ability to contribute to Hajduk’s success. Hajduk has agreed to pay a compensation fee of 250,000 euros for the transfer, and Fayad will be under contract with the club until the summer of 2029. This signing comes as Hajduk prepares for the Conference League, having qualified for the group stage following a dramatic 3-2 win over Raków in Poland. The club aims to strengthen its midfield ahead of the upcoming season, particularly after the departures of Rokas Pukštas and Niko Sigur. Fayad’s arrival adds depth and quality to Hajduk’s midfield, providing the team with a technically gifted player who can adapt to different tactical setups. His experience in one of Europe’s top leagues, coupled with his versatility, makes him a valuable addition to Gonzalo García’s squad. With the Conference League campaign set to begin on October 15th, Hajduk hopes that Fayad’s presence will help them achieve positive results in their European matches.

A mid-game homer represents a new addition to the roster, and the departure of an off-screen star.

Hajduk Zagreb bio je na tribinama Poljudskog stadiona tijekom utakmice protiv Lokomotive, gdje je Marokanac Khalil Fayad, 22, bio zabilježen kameralnim snimkom MAXSporta. Fayad, koji trenutačno nije bio u klupskom sastavu, bio je na tribinama u društvu dvojice prijatelja, što je izazvalo pažnju. Igrač, koji može pokriti sve pozicije u veznom redu, posebno se ističe kao moguća zamjena za Niku Sigura. Prema informacijama, Fayad će proći liječničke preglede u Hajduku i potpisati kontrakt nakon utakmice. Međutim, Sigur, koji je bio ključna figura za klub, nije bio u sastavu, a njegov transfer prema najnovijim vijestima teče ka Toulouseu.
