Danish winger Emil Frederiksen is expected by many to change clubs this winter, with Deportivo Alavés considered the most realistic destination. The club is connected with Istra's ownership structure, and it is stated that the Basque club could use a right winger of his type. Alavés had reportedly been hesitant for years about players from the Pula-based club, but their view is said to have changed after acquiring Ville Koski.
