Petrović's contract expires in the summer.

Germanijak reported on Rijeka's decision to turn down a substantial offer for Petrovič in the midst of recent transfer activities. It was reported that Rijeka rejected a two million euro bid for Petrovič, even though they had just finalized the transfer of Galešić to Dinamo. Petrovič is considered a player with the potential to join the Croatian national team, possessing significant room for improvement and leadership qualities. His profile is said to be attracting interest from markets such as Germany and Austria. Nevertheless, Rijeka chose to retain Petrovič despite his previous injury issues, for a million euros less than what was proposed by a club not linked to Rijeka.

An offer for Dejan Petrovič, a Slovenian national team midfielder, came from a foreign club amounting to two million euros, but it was rejected. Petrovič has a contract until the end of the season, with a clause for a one-year extension that the club will activate. He has become a regular member of the starting lineup this season, praised for his professionalism by Radomir Đalović as 'a player every coach would want.'
