HNK Hajduk Split is planning to sign four new players in this summer's transfer window, with the club's sporting leadership confirming that at least one of the acquisitions will likely be a midfielder. The revelation came during an appearance on the Polish podcast Meczyki, where sporting director Robert Graf outlined the club's ambitions to strengthen the squad ahead of a historic European campaign. Hajduk has received a financial injection of nearly four million euros from their UEFA Europa Conference League participation, a sum they did not anticipate when planning the season. Currently, the team sits fourth in the HNL standings with seven points from four matches, recording a WWDL form and a goal difference of +4. This leaves them just two points behind league leaders Dinamo Zagreb, with their next fixture a home match against NK Lokomotiva Zagreb on August 31. The deadline to register players for the Conference League is Wednesday, September 2 at 23:59, while the HNL transfer window remains open until September 7. This creates urgency for Hajduk to complete signings so that new players are eligible for their first European appearance in 16 years. The club had previously shown interest in Dženis Burnić, who is now a free agent, while midfielder Rokas Pukštas has departed. There is also speculation surrounding the potential exit of Nika Sigur, and Hajduk is exploring options on the wings. Club president Ivan Bilić stated: "nisu računali na financijsku injekciju koju je donijela Konferencijska liga". This unexpected revenue stream provides financial flexibility, but time is short. Without new signings before the European deadline, Hajduk will be unable to alter its squad except in exceptional cases such as serious injury. This places added pressure on the sporting department to act swiftly. For the latest match details, visit our fixtures page, and for full player information, check the squad section.
