- Dominik Livaković's potential return to Dinamo Zagreb is complicated by interest from Greek champions Olympiacos.

Dominik Livaković's highly anticipated return to Dinamo Zagreb has hit a snag, with Greek champions Olympiacos emerging as a strong contender for the Croatian national team's goalkeeper. The transfer saga surrounding Livaković has taken a significant turn, moving away from a return to his former club.
Germanijak reports that Olympiacos is prepared to meet Fenerbahçe's financial requirements for the player, potentially bringing Livaković to Greece. The goalkeeper's agent, Andy Bara, is actively seeking the best solution for his client, and his recent visit to Istanbul fueled speculation about a transfer.
While a return to Croatia seemed likely for some time, Greece now appears as a serious alternative. Olympiacos reportedly wants Livaković as their first-choice goalkeeper and is willing to offer approximately five million euros in transfer fees. The Greek club has been searching for a quality goalkeeper, and Livaković has become their primary target.
However, Livaković's health remains a concern. He has been dealing with an injury since the World Cup, which may require him to continue his rehabilitation in Zagreb. This development adds another complication to the transfer, potentially altering the expected outcome of his future club.
