The Sibenik Post

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

41 days out for Ivan Zaverukha after a fracture

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

Squad

The knee: Karlo Baranović out for 45 days

45 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Sibenik lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

The dugout

Jake Leahy keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Sibenik may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Transfer targets

Too dear: Sibenik walk away from Emin Hasić

$580.0K was the most the club would pay and NK Osijek were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.

Squad

Tempers go at Sibenik

Daniel Katić was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Boardroom

5 academy graduates step up at Sibenik

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Squad

Words at Sibenik training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Noel Bodetić 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.

Match

Sibenik come up short against Hrvatski Dragovoljac

Hrvatski Dragovoljac left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Market

One of our own: Petar Corluka joins the Sibenik first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Petar Corluka is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

In brief
