Josip Radošević is nearing a move to Istra 1961. He has not traveled with Brondby for their training camp in Portugal. According to Danish sources, Brondby has agreed to all terms for a mutual contract termination with Radošević and has also reached an agreement with Istra 1961. It was reported that the player has waived part of his bonus at Brondby, demonstrating his commitment to joining Istra 1961. He is set to sign a contract valid until 2027, marking one of the most significant transfers in Istra 1961's history due to his technical skills, reputation, and strong personality.

Josip Radošević, a former Hajduk midfielder, is the first choice for Istra 1961. The club is waiting for a decision from Bröndby to finalize the transfer.

Italian insider Lorenzo Lepore reported on Wednesday that Istra is in negotiations with Josip Radošević, who has been with the Danish club Brondby for the last six and a half seasons and is contracted until the end of the season. Lepore mentioned that negotiations with Istra are ongoing, although the deal is not yet finalized. According to the Danish portal Tipsbladet, Radošević is not expected to return to SuperSport HNL in the winter transfer window as Brondby plans to retain him. Istra's sports director, Saša Bjelanović, confirmed that the club does not have the financial resources to purchase him. However, once his contract expires at the end of the season, Radošević will be free to change clubs without a transfer fee. Bjelanović told Tipsbladet that financially, they cannot afford a player of Josip's caliber at the moment. Bjelanović, who has a personal connection with Radošević from their time at Hajduk, noted that Radošević has expressed a desire to return to Croatia for family reasons.

Josip Radošević, a former Croatian international and player for Hajduk, Napoli, Rijeka, Eibar, and Salzburg, is currently with Danish club Bröndby. With six months remaining on his contract, he has indicated a desire to return closer to home. Istra 1961, supported by Baskonia-Alaves, is in negotiations to include him in Garcij's project, emphasizing his aggressive playing style as an ideal match for the team. Radošević, celebrated as a club legend at Bröndby and holding the record for the most appearances by a foreign player in the club's history, has been met with great respect and interest from Istra to join their squad. His potential transfer is viewed as a significant enhancement for the team, aligning with the core attributes valued by coach Garcija in his strategic plans.
