Next on the list of young domestic players for contract extension is Šimun Hrgovićwhich delighted the coach Gennara Gattusa professional approach and combativeness, as well as the willingness to play in a position that is not natural to him.

– I am proud of the call-up, but I need to justify it with good games. I hope that one day I will deserve a call-up – said Hrgovi, whose contract expires in the summer, but Hajduk has the option to keep him for another year.

Considering Hrgov’s good games and status, Hajduk will surely react soon with a contract extension and much better conditions, which was unofficially confirmed to us by the club.

Among the ten Hajduk players whose contracts expire at the end of the season, there are still four young players, Borna Buljan, Mate Antunović, Niko Đyou win i Elvis Letajeach with their own specific situation. Buljan is in the status of the third goalkeeper, collecting minutes mainly when Lučić and Kalinić injured, and if Hajduk takes him seriously, they will have to give him a real chance or send him on loan.

Niko Đolonga was part of Hajduk’s team that played in the finals of the Youth Champions League, but he failed to impose himself for more serious minutes. This season, he only got 17 minutes in the cup test with Bilogora, and he got another eight minutes last season in the derby against Rijeka under coach Ivan Leka. It is obvious that Gattuso does not see him as a solution and that Dstroklong will have to look for a new environment, and Elvis Letaj will have the same fate. The young Kosovar has operated twice on his cruciate ligaments and is currently recovering in Poljud, but it is difficult to expect that he could remain in the competition after his contract expires in the summer.

In the end, he stayed Mate Antunovićanother member of Hajduk’s generation that played in the Youth Champions League. Antonović spent the entire last season on loan at the young team of Monza, he played 28 games and scored ten goals, but the Italians did not buy his contract, so at the beginning of the season he returned to Poljud, where he was promised an opportunity and minutes. and.

Recently, against Lokomotiv and Mladost from Ždralov, he was not even on the bench…

– Nothing special is happening with Mata. I make selections every week, I left Livaja on the bench as planned, Trajkovski started from the first minute, and Mate stayed in Split – said Gattuso after the Cup trial in Bjelovar.

Livaja is a story in itself, but if Gattuso trusts Trajkovski more, whose contract also expires in the summer, then it is difficult to expect that Antunovi will to play so quickly, especially if we know that in two months he can sign a contract with another club. Which is the most likely scenario, because after two missed seasons, the third would be disastrous…
