Looks like Kalinic is as good as gone. He refused to sign a new 3 yr deal and all indications is that hes very close to signing with Spanish club Valencia. I think its a good move for him. He seems to be unhappy in Split and it is affecting him on the feild. Hajduk is signing a new striker, 18 yr old Mario Sacer from Varteks. Looks like Kalinic is as good as gone.

An interview popped up on Dinamo's official site that pretty much sets the tone for his incoming departure. Though it's not Premiership, but rather Bundesliga that's his prefered destination. Werder look like they've taken the bait. Sharbini is a good buy, I like him as a player. And regarding Srna, well if he stays there he's one sorry a** bastard. He's at his peak and no way will he not regret the decision later on. As for Kalinic, I think it's more about him wanting to get out of Croatia then having actually someone who wants to bring him in. What saddens me is this "Wants a new challenge" routine. It's the same with Mandzukic, but "Mandza" at least has a few more years and a couple of trophy's on his list. Sad state of mind. Oh and keep those long posts coming :) @Kevin: Aye, it's finally official. And such was Pranjic's desire to leave Holland that he had to "buy himself" out of there. Madness. But it's definitely nice to see our players move there. And rumor has it that Simunic might end up joining them as well. Nice. @Ivan: Aye, looks like Mandzukic might be packing his bags after all.

Chelsea to offer €17M for Dario. According to a croatian paper, Srnas agent (Stimac) said "the time is now or never". I would love to see Dario @ Chelsea.

I will disagree with you on a few things. Mandzukic will get moved, way too much money floating around for Dinamo not to cash in on him. I understand rumors are just rumors but i have read on a few British websites that there is a lot of interest in him. Reportedly Aston Villa, Sunderland and Celtic are all offering around £8M for him (Dinamo is trying to get £10). Sharbini is rated at about £3M which would be a good buy. He has been linked with a dozen teams who are interested in him. If Rijeka needs the cash, he will have his pick on where he goes. Our Dario Srna, before the Ukraine game there was talk about him moving. The talk all but disapeared. Shakhtar reportedly put an €18M transfer fee on him. Shakhtar might have priced him out of the market. Reading between the lines, it looks like Shakhtar isnt willing to sell him unless the fee is so high they cant pass it up. If he goes anywhere it will be Barcelona or Milan. My bet is he stays where he is. Kalinic ... His last half of the season didnt go as he planned, his goal scoring slipped and Hajduk cant get what they want for him. His value has come down a bit and I dont think Hajduk will sell him on the cheap. Some other transfers of interest....19-year-old Croatian striker Danijel Prskalo has signed with Schalke 04. Hopefully he gets some playing time, he has a lot of promise. .... 22 year old Ivo Ilicevic has been moved to FC Kaiserslautern. Sorry for the long post. Keep up the good work Mario.
