Hajduk is on the verge of securing a deal with German offensive player Marco Richter, who remains contracted to Mainz until the summer of 2027. Reports indicate that Mainz, the Bundesliga club, will not obstruct his departure, as Richter no longer fits into their future plans. Throughout his career, Richter has accumulated 176 Bundesliga appearances, scoring 24 goals and providing 19 assists. He is versatile, able to function as an attacking midfielder or winger, and Goran Vučević regards him as a valuable addition capable of significantly enhancing Hajduk's offensive capabilities. At 27, Richter has demonstrated potential in the past, particularly during his tenure at Augsburg, where he netted 24 goals in 27 matches for their reserve team in the 2016/17 season. Nonetheless, his recent form has been less impressive, managing only one goal during a loan period at HSV in the second German league. Despite this, former Rijeka sporting director Robert Palikuča expressed confidence in Richter's ability to make a substantial impact at Hajduk, predicting he could achieve at least 5 goals and 5 assists in a season.
