Martin Erlić revealed that it had been his childhood dream to play for Hajduk at a full Poljud stadium. Nonetheless, reports from Bologna sport news indicate that Dinamo Zagreb is currently the frontrunner to sign him. Erlić, who was part of Dinamo's youth team from 2010 to 2012 before moving to Rijeka and later establishing his career in Italy, has a current market value estimated at 5 million euros. Should he join Dinamo, he could become their most valuable player following the departures of Baturina and Sučić. Erlić, who joined Bologna last summer for 7 million euros, has only made 11 appearances, leading to speculations about his future, particularly with the upcoming World Cup and his need for more playing time. Dinamo provides him with the opportunity to play in Europe. Italian media reports that although Parma initially expressed interest in Erlić, Dinamo Zagreb, the club where he developed as a young player, is now closest to securing his signature, offering him a spot in the starting lineup. With the World Cup approaching and having missed out on Zlatko Dalić's recent squad selection, Erlić views Dinamo as a chance to acquire necessary minutes and display his talent in Europe.
