Zvezda is back on the hunt for young regional talent, and this time their eyes are on 18-year-old Danilo Vukanić from Montenegro! Could this be the end of Marakana’s long-standing drought for a solid defensive midfielder? Zvezda’s scouts are working overtime, and one of their latest reports comes straight from Podgorica. Italian journalist Lorenzo Laporte reveals that besides Zvezda, the French club Strasbourg is also interested in this strong young player. Vukanić currently plays for Budućnost, which demands between 100,000 and 150,000 euros in transfer fees — a hefty sum for a player who hasn’t even broken into the starting eleven yet. Born in Kolašin, he joined Budućnost’s youth ranks and made his first-team debut last season. Zvezda sees him as the perfect candidate for the ‘six’ position — the defensive midfielder spot that has been a black hole on Marakana for years. Will Zvezda finally end this agony and bring in a player who can add stability and strength to their midfield? Meanwhile, Partizan hasn’t been sitting still — in the last two transfer windows, they signed two young players from Budućnost, Milan Vukotić and Andrej Kostić, paying around 100,000 euros and promising a cut from future sales. It’s clear there’s a fierce battle for young talent in the region, and Zvezda doesn’t want to be left behind. If this transfer goes through, it could be a game-changer. So, what do you think — is Vukanić the future of Marakana or just another unproven talent? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s optimistic and who’s skeptical!
