According to Fanatik, Universitatea Craiova submitted an offer of 800,000 euros for Meriton Korenica. CFR Cluj had not yet responded.

Amid financial difficulties at CFR Cluj, 29-year-old Kosovan winger Meriton Korenica, who is in the final year of his contract, has attracted interest from Universitatea Craiova. CFR owner Neluțu Varga received an offer of around 500,000 euros from Universitatea Craiova but is trying to negotiate a price of at least 800,000 euros. It is reported that Varga prefers to wait until after the club's Conference League match against Alashkert before making a decision, hoping the player's value might increase. Rapid is also interested in the winger, though a move is considered difficult due to their budget. Apollon Limassol previously made a concrete offer for Korenica last winter, and it is said that he is being monitored by other European clubs. Korenica joined CFR Cluj in July 2024 and has 6 caps for Kosovo. His current market value is €3.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
