Hajduk Split has secured its place in the second round of the UEFA Europa League after a narrow 2:1 victory over Žilina in Slovakia. The result was enough to advance past the first qualifying round despite the away defeat, setting up a challenging two-legged tie against Cypriot side Pafos. The first leg will take place on July 23 at Stadion Poljud, with the return match scheduled for July 30 in Cyprus. The Croatian club's progression comes amid ongoing preparations for the new season, which includes several transfers and internal dynamics affecting team cohesion. The first leg encounter against Žilina saw Hajduk face early challenges. They fell behind in the second minute of extra time due to a goal by Alec Van Hoorenbeeck. However, the visitors equalized through Marko Roginić in the 53rd minute before Dario Melnjak scored an unexpected own goal in the first minute of added time to secure the win. The match highlighted both resilience and defensive vulnerabilities, with coach Gonzalo Garcia making several substitutions during the game. Hajduk’s squad has undergone significant changes ahead of the new campaign. Four players have already left the club, while at least two more are expected to depart. To date, six new signings have joined the ranks: Alberto del Moral, Etnik Brruti, Mathieu Acapandié, Andjelo Šutalo, Alec Van Hoorenbeeck, and Dalisson de Almeida. Reports suggest a seventh addition could soon follow, potentially involving Emanuel Ekong, a 24-year-old winger from Sweden currently playing for Malmö FF. Ekong, who previously played for Empoli, Perugia, and Istria 1961, has a contract with Malmö until 2029 and is valued at €450,000 on Transfermarkt. The club's financial situation appears stable following their qualification for the Europa League. UEFA provides each participant in the qualifying rounds with €175,000, meaning Hajduk has already earned this amount from the first round. With the advancement to the second round, they received additional compensation, bringing their total earnings from European competitions in July alone to €350,000. This financial boost adds pressure on the team to perform well in the upcoming matches against Pafos, known for their strong performances in last season’s Champions League qualifiers. Internal tensions within the squad remain unresolved. Marko Livaja, one of the club's star players, faced criticism after being accused of violating disciplinary rules during pre-season training in Slovenia. Despite initial speculation about his potential departure, the club confirmed he would remain for the upcoming season. Coach Gonzalo Garcia, however, continues to face scrutiny regarding his relationship with Livaja, with fans rating him poorly in a recent poll assessing player performances. As Hajduk prepares for the crucial matches against Pafos, the focus shifts to both tactical adjustments and maintaining unity among the players. The challenge posed by the Cypriot side, who finished 26th in the Champions League group stage last season, underscores the need for consistent performance and strategic planning. With the first leg approaching, all eyes will be on how the team handles these pressures and whether the anticipated reinforcements can make a difference in the coming weeks.
