Offers from the Arab world have been received by U Cluj for 27-year-old centre-forward Jovo Lukić. While U Cluj are not in a hurry to sell the Bosnia-Herzegovina international, it is considered likely that the footballer will be transferred to a club in either Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates, although there is also interest from Qatar. Lukić, who joined the club in July 2025 and has a contract until June 2029, scored 18 goals in 32 domestic league appearances in the 2025/2026 season. He has five caps and one goal for his country. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €2.20m. In April 2026, reports indicated that Universitatea Cluj's management expects a transfer fee of approximately €1.5 million.
