While the Croatian national football team celebrated a significant victory, goalkeeper Dominik Livaković received disappointing news from Turkey. Reports from Turkish media indicate that a potential transfer to the Istanbul club Beşiktaş has fallen through.

Beşiktaş had been considered one of the most serious options for Livaković's career continuation in recent days. However, information emerging from Istanbul suggests the Turkish club has opted for another goalkeeper. The reported choice is German goalkeeper Alexander Nübel, who is said to have already decided to join Beşiktaş.

According to German and Turkish media, Nübel has informed Bayern Munich of his desire to transfer to Beşiktaş and is awaiting an agreement between the clubs. This development effectively closes the door on Livaković's move to Beşiktaş, despite earlier reports that the club had contacted Fenerbahçe to initiate transfer negotiations.
