Speculation is mounting regarding the future leadership and personnel at Rijeka. Reports circulating in the city suggest that Damir Mišković, the club’s long-time head, is preparing for a transition, with discussions pointing toward a potential change following the conclusion of the current season. The status of player Victor Sanchez is also under scrutiny, with considerable doubt surrounding his continued role at the club.
Beyond player movements, the coaching staff is a focal point of discussion. In Rujevica, there is significant skepticism regarding whether Sanchez will remain in a coaching capacity after the season concludes. Meanwhile, Croatian media outlets have heavily favored the potential return of Matej Keko to the club.
It was noted that Mišković has previously attempted to secure Keko’s return, but the coach declined at the time because he was serving as the selector for the Slovenian national team. Despite this history, sources suggest a deep mutual affinity exists between Keko and Rijeka, and Mišković has maintained a positive professional relationship with him over the years.
