With a bid reportedly now accepted by Lyon, Rijeka have opened formal talks with Teo Barisic over personal terms. The defender is said to be keen on the move, though full details of the contract are still being worked through. Negotiations are active, and the next 24-48 hours could prove decisive in closing the deal - with optimism growing that he will be a Rijeka player before too long. Rijeka continue discussions over the move, with no rival interest reported so far to complicate matters. Rijeka's back line has been a real strength this season, conceding just 1.12 goals per game (19 in 17). Teo Barisic would be expected to slot into that unit and hold his own in an already solid setup. Reports suggest Lyon are monitoring El Chadaille Bitshiabu, Manuel Ugarte and Endrick Felipe Moreira de Sousa whereas Rijeka have not been associated with other players at this stage.
