Milano, Bologna, or Madrid? Jaka Bijol, after exceptional performances at Euro 2024, where he was named in the ideal eleven of the championship by some sports journalists, has caught the attention of many giants. However, Udinese will not easily let go of him.
The Slovenian defender’s value on the German portal Transfermarkt stands at a hefty 15 million euros, meaning that the club from Udine, in case of a sale, will at least triple its investment of four million that they had to pay to Moscow’s CSKA in the summer of 2022. The 25-year-old from Vuzenica is under contract with his current employer until 2027.
The battle for Jaka Bijol’s signature will be interesting, with interest coming from everywhere
The current Italian champion Inter has been interested in Bijol for some time. However, they are expected to wait until next summer, as the contracts of Francesco Acerbi and Stefan de Vrij, who play as central defenders, expire then. But the club of Samir Handanović might face trouble from other admirers of Jaka Bijol. Especially Bologna could be a concern for the Nerazzurri, as the club from the capital of Emilia-Romagna has already submitted an official offer for the Slovenian, which was rejected, but the new participant in the Champions League is expected to try to close the deal before the end of the transfer window.
Interest is also coming from other European countries, with numerous clubs from the English Premier League showing interest. Additionally, inquiries about the pillar of the Slovenian national team’s defense have come from Wanda Metropolitano, home of Atletico Madrid and their “scout” Jan Oblak.
