Squad15 Feb 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Karlo Valjan

22 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Jadran Luka Ploce lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad15 Feb 2027

Daniel Vinković is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 18 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad15 Feb 2027

Ivan Horvat in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Jadran Luka Ploce this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings15 Feb 2027

Karlo Darojković runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad15 Feb 2027

Words at Jadran Luka Ploce training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Marcel Lorber is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Transfer targets15 Feb 2027

Door shut on Damjan Đokanović

Jadran Luka Ploce asked and Vojvodina said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match13 Feb 2027

A bad afternoon for Jadran Luka Ploce against Bjelovar

1‑2 to Bjelovar, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout15 Feb 2027

No hiding place for Luka Pršlja

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Luka Pršlja, and the manager let it.

The dugout15 Feb 2027

Marin Rebic faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Marin Rebic after 1‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Squad18 Jan 2027

Karlo Valjan damages knee ligaments — 51 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 51 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad18 Jan 2027

The step up is real for Daniel Vinković

At 18 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad18 Jan 2027

Danijel Zagorac in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Jadran Luka Ploce this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets18 Jan 2027

Rodina tell Jadran Luka Ploce: Ivan Timoshenko is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad18 Jan 2027

Luka Pršlja falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The terraces18 Jan 2027

The crowd has taken to Duje Ušalj

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match16 Jan 2027

Jadran Luka Ploce get the job done against Mladost Zdralovi

A 2‑0 win over Mladost Zdralovi, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

The dugout18 Jan 2027

No hiding place for Ivan Verhas

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Ivan Verhas, and the manager let it.

Player ratings18 Jan 2027

Nobody on the pitch touched Duje Ušalj

7.86, and no serious argument from anybody who was there. Jadran Luka Ploce had eleven men on the pitch and one of them decided how it went.

Squad26 Oct 2026

62 days out for Emanuel Mađarić after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Jadran Luka Ploce will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Ivan Horvat in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Jadran Luka Ploce this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The manager makes an example of Luka Pršlja

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad26 Oct 2026

24 new faces, and Jadran Luka Ploce are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Nobody could get near Karlo Darojković

Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Jadran Luka Ploce keep their word to Daniel Vinković

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Tom Kljun has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Jadran Luka Ploce will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Marin Rebic on the point

“A point is a point and I will take it, but we should have had all three.” Marin Rebic after the 0‑0 draw, and the sentence every manager in the country said at some stage this weekend.

Match24 Oct 2026

Jadran Luka Ploce and Bjelovar cancel each other out

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. Bjelovar came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Emanuel Mađarić breaks a bone — 106 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 106 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Ivan Verhas runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 22. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words at Jadran Luka Ploce training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Luka Pršlja is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad14 Sep 2026

A falling-out at Jadran Luka Ploce

Stjepan Štefanac and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Karlo Valjan

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Karlo Valjan, and the manager let it.

Squad14 Sep 2026

The formation has left Stjepan Štefanac behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Jadran Luka Ploce will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

Somebody else is better right now than Luka Kapetanović

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

Match12 Sep 2026

Jadran Luka Ploce share the spoils with Lucko

A 1‑1 draw with Lucko leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

Half-satisfied: Marin Rebic on the draw

“There are things I liked and things we will be doing on Tuesday until they are right.” 1‑1, and a manager who had already decided what Tuesday looked like.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Jadran Luka Ploce go back to the board over Luka Rodek

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $27.0K — a club that wants Luka Rodek enough to be asked twice.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Jadran Luka Ploce

Danijel Zagorac and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

An offer of $25.0K for Luka Rodek

Jadran Luka Ploce have gone to Varteks with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Door shut on Mathieu Acapandié

Jadran Luka Ploce asked and Hajduk Split said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Jadran Luka Ploce

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Emanuel Mađarić was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

One of their own: Marin Budimir

He is 22 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Match15 Aug 2026

Jadran Luka Ploce see off Solin

Three points for Jadran Luka Ploce, 2‑0 the final word against Solin in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Market17 Aug 2026

Ivan Verhas already looking beyond Jadran Luka Ploce

He signed expecting a bigger stage than the one he found. It has not taken long, and it has not taken the dressing room long to notice either.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

One of those days for Marin Budimir

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.01, and no argument anywhere in the ground.
