Forget the million-euro rumors! Predrag Mijatović, Partizan’s vice president in charge of sports affairs, has finally cleared the air about the transfer of young striker Andrej Kostić. While the media buzzed about a million-euro transfer fee, Mijatović calmly denied it: “It’s not true that we paid a million euros, it’s less!” Yes, you read that right — less! But that’s not all. He also revealed that Kostić’s buyout clause will one day reach a whopping 20 million euros! Has Partizan pulled off the deal of the century or is this just another football transfer trick?
Partizan recently announced the signing of the talented forward from Budućnost, and Mijatović indirectly confirmed in a podcast that the club plans to make serious money from this young striker. The strategy is clear: invest in young players, promote them to the first team, and then cash in on high transfer clauses.
This is yet another proof that Partizan not only nurtures talent but also plays smart on the football transfer market. But will Kostić live up to the hype and really reach a value of 20 million euros? Only time will tell.
Meanwhile, as transfers and clauses swirl, fans and critics can only guess and comment. What about you? Do you think Partizan has the right strategy, or is this just another football fairy tale? Drop a comment, maybe your theory will be the funniest one!
