Branimir Mlačić Transfer from Hajduk Split to Chelsea
Branimir Mlačić, an 18-year-old Croatian Centre-Back, has appointed Fali Ramadani to represent him. Ramadani is an agent who is well-known in England and has strong ties to clubs such as Chelsea. The defender is considered unlikely to join Inter, even though the club had accepted all requests from the player's father during recent discussions. It is reported that Mlačić believes the step up from Hajduk to Inter is too large and that he instead prefers a transfer to a medium-high level club, with Como or Leipzig mentioned as potential examples, before an eventual move to a top Premier League side. A definitive decision on his future is expected in the coming days, making Inter a less probable destination. Mlačić has made 14 appearances and provided 2 assists in the SuperSport HNL this season, and his current Transfermarkt market value is €4.00m. In January 2026, reports suggested that Inter Milan had reached an agreement with Hajduk Split for a fee of around €5-5.5 million plus bonuses. Separately, other rumours amid interest from clubs like Como suggested Hajduk could receive between €5.5 million and €8 million.
