Club Brugge's sporting director, Dévy Rigaux, was asked if 22-year-old Croatian centre-forward Franjo Ivanović is an option for the club. Rigaux admitted that Ivanović was completely unattainable following his breakthrough at Union and described him as an interesting player who might be considered in the future. However, Rigaux stated that the player is not being pursued at present, explaining there is no prior history.
