Rijeka has taken an important step in bringing Croatian talent: the player wants to come

Rijeka has reached an agreement with player Marin Šotiček, who wishes to join the club. The next challenge is convincing Basel to accept a loan deal with an option to buy, which would allow Rijeka to immediately acquire Šotiček while potentially securing a permanent transfer later under more favorable conditions. This development follows earlier reports that Rijeka had entered the race for Šotiček after his move to Polish club Widzew seemed imminent. While the Polish team offered stronger financial terms, Rijeka hopes to leverage its sports project, familiar environment, and clear developmental role to attract Šotiček. Šotiček would bring value to Rijeka not just as another wide-player but as a dynamic winger capable of playing wide, attacking one-on-one, and contributing in the final third. After leaving Lokomotiv Moscow for Basel, Šotiček did not fully establish himself in Swiss football last season. His return to Croatian football, particularly to a club competing in European competitions with serious ambitions, could be seen as a logical step. Šotiček’s arrival would also be significant in the context of potential transfers involving Toni Frk, whose departure might create both

Krovinovic's agent found out why the convict went to Brazil: 'Let's face it...'

Filip Krovinović, a Croatian footballer who played for Hajduk Split for five seasons, has moved to Brazilian club Grêmio. His agent, Marijan Šišić, explained to Sportske novosti that the transfer was influenced by Krovinović’s previous relationship with coach Luís Castro, who had previously managed him at Rio Ave and helped him move to Benfica. The decision was also driven by financial incentives offered by Grêmio, which provided favorable conditions for the player. While there were several European options, the connection with Castro and the financial offer ultimately led to the move. Krovinović expressed gratitude toward Hajduk’s management, acknowledging their professionalism during the transition.

This is why Krovinović replaced Hajduk with Brazil: "Let's not lie, the finances have overwhelmed... "

Hrvatski nogomarač Filip Krovinović je prešao na brazilski klub Grêmio nakon pet godina u Hajdku, gdje je ostvario svoj dječački san. Transfer je završen uz sudjelovanje njegova agenta Marjana Šišića, koji je objasnio da je odluka utjecala na trenera Luísa Castru, koji je prethodno bio njegov trener u Rio Aveu. Šišić je istaknuo da su finansijske prilike i razumjevanje uloge u novom klubu bili ključni faktori u odluci.

Filip Krovinović, former player of Hajduk Split, has moved to Brazilian club Grêmio. His agent Marijan Šišić explained that the decision was influenced by both financial factors and the opportunity to play under coach Luís Castro, who previously worked with Krovinović at Rio Ave. Castro played a key role in Krovinović’s development, positioning him as an offensive midfielder where he performed well.

Krovinovic gave up part of his salary to terminate his contract with Hajduk, and it seems he's moving to Brazil immediately.

Filip Krovinović, 30-godišnjak, je raskinuo sporazum s Hajdukom nakon pet godina suradnje, što je rezultiralo sporazumnim raskidom ugovora. Prema izvorima, Krovinović je prihvatio smanjenje dijela svoje plaće kako bi ubrzao proces raskida, a Hajduk će mu isplatiti preostalu sumu. Njegov odlazak nije iznenađenje jer je klub ranije javno tražio novi klub za njega. Čini se da je Krovinović već pronašao novu sredinu u Braziliji, gdje bi mogao pojačati klub Grêmio.

A three million-euro sale at the last minute?

FC Twente, a top-tier Dutch football club, signed two players this summer, Aske Adelgaard and Krzysztof Kurowski, to fill the void left by the departures of Mats Roets and Bas Kuipers. However, they were very close to signing another player: Šime Hrgović, a 22-year-old left-back from Hajduk Split. According to the Dutch website Twente Insite, the transfer collapsed at the last minute due to additional demands made by Hajduk. While the specific terms were not disclosed, it is speculated that Hajduk sought a higher transfer fee or more favorable conditions, such as a percentage of future sales, which FC Twente was unwilling to accept. Hrgović is valued at €3 million according to Transfermarkt and has played 77 matches for Hajduk Split, scoring 11 assists. He also has 16 caps for Croatia’s U-21 team.

Krovinović surprised by choice after leaving Hajduk: Goes to cult club

Croatian footballer Marko Krovinović has unexpectedly decided to leave Hajduk Split after his contract expires, choosing to move to the Brazilian club Grêmio. He has waived part of his remaining salary to facilitate the transfer, while Hajduk will pay him the rest of the agreed amount. His departure was anticipated due to his reduced role within the team and the club’s efforts to reduce player-related financial burdens. Grêmio is close to finalizing the deal, which would see Krovinović join the club without any compensation fee. The move could be influenced by Grêmio’s coach Luís Castro, who knows Krovinović well from their time in Portugal. Krovinović joined Hajduk in 2021 after playing abroad for clubs such as Rio Ave, Benfica, West Bromwich Albion, and Nottingham Forest. This transfer would mark his first move outside of Europe and represent a new chapter in his career at one of Brazil’s most prestigious football clubs.
