A report from Great Britain states that Toni Fruk has been scouted by Crystal Palace for a long time, and he is considered a player who would fit coach Oliver Glasner's style.

After Crystal Palace was mentioned as one of the possible clubs for Fruk, Hrvoje Slišković stated that the main priority would be for him to play.

Crystal Palace and Arsenal are preparing to compete to sign HNK Rijeka's 24-year-old attacking midfielder Toni Fruk. Rijeka president Damir Miskovic has stated that any potential deal must start at €15m (£13.1m), and Fruk's former club Fiorentina retains matching rights. The player's contract runs until 2027, and he has reportedly admitted that his dream is to play in the Premier League.
