Osijek is interested in 22-year-old right-back Moris Valinčić, who plays for Istra 1961 and the Croatian U21 national team. The club has faced challenges in the right-back position, particularly due to Guedes’s injury. Valinčić, under contract with Istra until June 2026, could be a potential solution.
