Squad4 Oct 2027

16 days out for Krunoslav Hendija after a fracture

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

The dugout4 Oct 2027

Fran Stunja: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” HNK Gorica have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Zvonimir Šarlija 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.

Match2 Oct 2027

HNK Gorica cannot find the net

3 games without scoring. Strikers stop looking up, midfielders take the extra touch, and every shot that clears the bar is followed by a groan that has been building since the last goal.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Words exchanged at HNK Gorica

Marko Jug 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.

Player ratings4 Oct 2027

Théo Epailly was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 15. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Lovro Dukić named in the team of the month

A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Lovro Dukić is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

The dugout4 Oct 2027

The manager makes an example of Dušan Stevanović

“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.

Player ratings4 Oct 2027

Zvonimir Šarlija takes the honours

Marked 7.12 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, HNK Gorica had the best player on the pitch.

Market6 Sep 2027

Terms done: Marko Jug is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Uskok waiting with a shirt. Nobody at HNK Gorica is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Squad6 Sep 2027

Krunoslav Hendija breaks a bone — 47 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 47 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Boardroom6 Sep 2027

HNK Gorica write off $554.0K on Mario Mladenovski

He arrived for a fee and leaves for a fraction of it. $554.0K of what HNK Gorica paid for Mario Mladenovski is money the club will not see again, and the boardroom will be asked about it for two seasons.

Market6 Sep 2027

Théo Epailly puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at HNK Gorica, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets6 Sep 2027

HNK Gorica agree $420.0K for Fran Ćavar

The clubs have shaken hands with Cibalia; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.

Boardroom6 Sep 2027

HNK Gorica close the window on a squad of their own making

23 in and 19 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Transfer targets6 Sep 2027

Roko Mavra turns down HNK Gorica

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Uskok keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Market6 Sep 2027

Jakov Filipović’s move to Cibalia falls through

The deal that would have taken Jakov Filipović to Cibalia has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to HNK Gorica with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Squad6 Sep 2027

A falling-out at HNK Gorica

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

Market28 Jun 2027

Ivan Cvijanović 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 HNK Gorica can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

HNK Gorica agree $420.0K for Ilija Đilas

The clubs have shaken hands with BSK Bijelo Brdo; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

Dorian Babunski will not be coming to HNK Gorica

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Nyíregyháza is saying, and nobody at HNK Gorica is enjoying the guessing.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Luka Miočić arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Luka Miočić has, at HNK Gorica, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

Door shut on Xavier Dziekoński

HNK Gorica asked and Korona said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market28 Jun 2027

Darijan Žarkov moves on

Istra 1961 pay $8.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Market28 Jun 2027

Luka Kapulica comes back from a loan that worked

17 appearances and 3 goals away from here, and a player the manager did not have in August. Loans are sent out hoping for exactly this and most of them do not deliver it.

Squad28 Jun 2027

A row about effort at HNK Gorica

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

Squad28 Jun 2027

Marko Jug 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 HNK Gorica this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
