Robert Šola, the editor-in-chief of Sportske novosti, suggested Croatian centre-forward Jakov Puljić as a potential signing for Dinamo. Journalist Davorin Olivari noted that Puljić is the league's second-highest scorer despite playing for the last-place team. Ilija Lončarević agreed, adding that if Dinamo were to sell Beljo, Puljić would immediately have a place in the squad.
