Initially, it seemed that Matija Marsenić would join Inter Bratislava, but the transfer did not materialize as he completed a move to FK Čukarički instead. Górnik Zabrze had earlier indicated that they did not see Marsenić as part of their future plans, allowing him to seek opportunities elsewhere. Despite initially being linked with Inter Bratislava, Marsenić eventually signed a permanent deal with FK Čukarički, a club that finished ninth in the Serbian top division last season. This marked a surprising turn of events in the transfer saga of the 20-year-old Montenegrin midfielder.
