Oleksandr Petrušenko is set to join Osijek after successfully completing his medical examination. Previously, there were discussions linking him to potential transfers to Hajduk and Rijeka. About a month and a half ago, Petrušenko reportedly confirmed receiving an offer from Croatia, though it was unclear whether it was from Osijek at that time. As a former Istra midfielder, he had a notable impact there before moving to Antalyaspor for half a million euros last summer. Alen Petrović, the sports director, managed to keep the negotiations discreet until Petrušenko's arrival in Osijek, ensuring that the 'bijelo-plavi' midfield will be strengthened with this new addition. Despite ongoing speculations, Petrušenko's journey ultimately brought him to Opus Arena, marking a new chapter in his career in the Supersport HNL, where he is already well-acquainted.
