Osijek reluctantly entered negotiations. The primary intention was to keep Mierez until the end of his contract, even if it meant he would leave for free next summer. They were ready to offer a new contract with better terms, and had even discussed the draft with the Argentine. However, he was resolute in his intention to change clubs.

Osijek's sports director, Jose Boto, announced a proposal for a new long-term contract for Ramon Mierez, but no concrete offer has been made yet. The two parties are expected to negotiate by the end of August.

Osijek's sports director, Jose Boto, is prepared to offer Mierez a new contract with a lower salary or keep him until the end of his current contract. Mierez will definitely stay at Osijek as long as the club is competing for a spot in the Conference League.
