AEK appears willing to keep Mijat Gacinovic, but most likely under terms that include a significant reduction in his earnings, which would make him a valuable high-level squad player rather than one whose contract represents a major financial commitment. It is reported that Gacinovic's contract reaches or exceeds one million euros.

Marko Nikolic has made a positive recommendation for Mijat Gacinovic to stay. Gacinovic is considered a coach's player, and the chances for him to stay are considered high.

There is a question regarding Mijat Gacinovic, but the 31-year-old Serbian international seems to be able to earn a new contract since, in the coach's view and plans, he is more useful compared to Kutesa and Eliasson. The attacking midfielder has 28 caps and 2 goals for Serbia. In the current Super League 1 season, Gacinovic has made 13 appearances without scoring or providing an assist. He joined AEK Athens in July 2022. According to Transfermarkt, his current valuation is €1.80m.
