Although the matter was already concluded at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the Jaka Čuber Potočnik affair has gained new dimensions, thanks to the German publication Kicker, which claims that it all adds a “touch of business crime.” Kicker revealed details of the hearing at the CAS in Switzerland, highlighting two particularly contentious issues.
Reportedly, Vlatka Peras from the management of the Croatian giant Dinamo emphatically denied that Zagreb had prepared a written offer in December 2021, which agent Andy Bara allegedly delivered to Olimpija. The offer from Dinamo, amounting to 1.5 million euros for the transfer and 500,000 euros upon the player’s senior debut, was highlighted by Ljubljana’s side as their main argument for demanding a much higher compensation from Köln for the young Slovenian than they actually received.
“As stated in the verdict, the Dinamo official contradicts the Slovenians’ claim that negotiations took place exclusively through Bare,” writes Kicker, adding her statement that due to her high position, she was “informed ‘about all the offers made.’” Kicker also highlighted the testimony of Mladen Rudonja, former sporting director of Olimpija.
Rudonja reportedly stated in the Swiss court, “that his successor, Mr. Barišić, asked him in vain to prepare a fake undated offer from Manchester City,” which – according to Kicker – “could indicate that Olimpija as a whole tried to artificially increase the player’s value.”
All of this led to Köln filing a criminal complaint against the leadership of the Ljubljana club in a court in Germany at the end of last year.
