Zvonimir Boban confirmed Dinamo Zagreb's interest in 19-year-old Croatian Centre-Back Ivan Kolarik from Osijek. Boban described Kolarik as a potentially high-quality young talent with character. He did not discuss the details of any negotiations or the price and added that Osijek has the right to protect its interests. Dinamo is considering the possibility of signing Kolarik and then leaving him at Osijek for a period to continue playing. The final decision on the matter is also reportedly connected to the status of Sergio Dominguez. Kolarik, who has been capped once for Croatia U19, joined Osijek in July 2025 and has a contract until June 2029. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €300k. Porto has also been linked with the player.
