Leipzig pursue another Dinamo Zagreb talent

By Jonathan Dicks

Per newspaper Sportske Novosti, Leipzig want to sign Croatian winger Gabrijel Rukavina.

Leipzig have contacted Dinamo Zagreb for 18-year-old winger Gabrijel Rukavina, according to Croatian newspaper Sportske Novosti. No offer has been made, but it’s unlikely that Rukavina is ready to immediately make a difference at Leipzig. If a transfer were to take place, a loan back to Croatia for the season is a possibility.

An excellent connection has been developed between the German side and Dinamo Zagreb in recent years. Dani Olmo and Josko Gvardiol have previously come to Leipzig from the Croatian club. Rukavina is yet to make an appearance in a senior side and has a contract until 2028.
