Early on Friday, Croatian outlet 24sata reported (via @iMiaSanMia) that Dinamo Zagreb and Bayern Munich agreed on a deal for Gabriel Vidović:
Dinamo Zagreb and Bayern have reached an agreement for the permanent transfer of Gabriel Vidović. Bayern will receive a €1.2m fee and will have a % of a future sale. Braga and other European clubs were interested, but Vidović only wanted Dinamo.
Later, however, Sky Sport journalists Florian Plettenberg and Torben Hoffmann said that was not that case and that there was actually a bigger market for Vidović:
Dinamo Zagreb, SC Braga, and Heidenheim are in the race for Gabriel #Vidovic!
Understand there is no agreement between Bayern and Zagreb yet — as of Friday afternoon, the clubs hadn’t even been in contact. However, Zagreb are pushing hard on the player’s side and have a good chance.
Heidenheim, however, are not giving up. The Bundesliga side are very keen to sign the 21-year-old attacking midfielder. More teams have also made enquiries about him.
A couple of things are clear about Vidović — his future is not at Bayern Munich and he has plenty of suitors who can provide him a better chance to compete for playing time.
