Rumors have circulated suggesting that Hajduk is interested in acquiring goalkeeper Oliver Zelenika from Varaždin this winter. However, Hajduk's coach, Gennaro Gattuso, reportedly mentioned that he had never discussed Zelenika and that the goalkeeper's name had never come up in his office. He acknowledged that someone else from the club might have mentioned it. Although the speculation had emerged in the corridors, Gattuso, who is known for his straightforwardness, was clear in denying any personal involvement in discussions about Zelenika. Despite these rumors, Gattuso highlighted the importance of concentrating on the team's mental resilience and performance rather than on potential transfer talks.
