Match

Dinamo Zagreb march on in the cup

Segesta are out and Dinamo Zagreb go through, 4-3 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Match

Dinamo Zagreb tear NK Varazdin apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 5-0 against NK Varazdin, and it could have been more.

Match

Dinamo Zagreb up to position 2

25 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Market

Moris Valinčić wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Dinamo Zagreb hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad

Nikola Čavlina gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

The armband comes off Mislav Oršić

Dinamo Zagreb will explain it as a decision about the team, and it may well be one. A dressing room has never once read it that way.

Squad

Stjepan Radeljić is off the mark for Dinamo Zagreb

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.

Loan watch

5 goals on loan for Luka Stojković

13 appearances at Zob Ahan and the goals keep coming. Dinamo Zagreb are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Squad

Nikola Čavlina handed the armband

The captaincy goes to Nikola Čavlina. It is not a job that wins matches, but a dressing room always notices who is given it.

Market

Dinamo Zagreb turn down Dugopolje for Tomas Baković

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

HNK Gorica expected to open talks for Miha Zajc

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Dinamo Zagreb will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Match

Dinamo Zagreb get the job done against NK Varazdin

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

Squad

Niko Galešić gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Lovre Kulušić finally opens his account

He wheeled away like a man who had been carrying it for months, because he had. Dinamo Zagreb have their signing off the mark and one press-conference question retired.

Squad

Mislav Oršić unhappy with how he is being used

Asked to play a role that is not his, or taken off before the hour once too often — Mislav Oršić has let it be known that he does not like the way Dinamo Zagreb are using him. Managers hear this long before the press does.

Market

Dinamo Zagreb put Stjepan Radeljić up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Stjepan Radeljić may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

Squad

Ronaël Pierre-Gabriel knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Dinamo Zagreb, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

The Ronaël Pierre-Gabriel talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Dinamo Zagreb know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Match

The cup run ends for Dinamo Zagreb

0-0 against Dugopolje, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Market

Raúl Torrente hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Dinamo Zagreb can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Dominik Livaković decides it from twelve yards

1 kept out in the shoot-out, and a stadium that will still be describing them in twenty years. A goalkeeper only needs one of these to be remembered forever.

Market

Mislav Oršić wants more than Dinamo Zagreb are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Match

Dinamo Zagreb see off NK Varazdin

Three points for Dinamo Zagreb, 2-1 the final word against NK Varazdin in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Boardroom

Wages eat 154% of everything Dinamo Zagreb earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad

Moris Valinčić left out for the big one

A player who expected to start watched it instead. The manager will call it a decision for the team; Moris Valinčić will call it something else in private.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Gabriel Vidović

“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.

Squad

Luka Stojković is off the mark for Dinamo Zagreb

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.
