Bruno Petković and Marko Pjaca are no longer players of Dinamo after signing a mutual termination of their contracts with the club. The decision was made following a meeting between their agent Ivan Tarzan Cvjetković and Dinamo’s chairman Zvonimir Boban, as part of the club’s cost rationalization process. Petković spent seven years at Dinamo, becoming a club legend with 88 appearances and 61 assists. Next season, Dinamo will not play in the Champions League but in the Europa League, which further impacted the budget cuts and the departure of some players. Transfermarkt estimates a high chance that Petković will sign with Turkish club Beşiktaş, while Pjaca’s situation is also part of the club’s financial adjustments.
