Saw him once or twice during the World Cup when we were first linked last summer. He was invisible. Maybe I did see him only once.
shit source
It was in the Express as well. 18 million so assume the 22 is euros.
Edit: They have it as we've raised our offer from 7.5 to 12.9 million. They want 18.

RAWK have allowed it. It has it's own thread and everything.
BTW out of extreme boredom, I looked up Kovacevic in transfermarkt and can confirm that out of 86 guys with that last name, only one fella has an estimate market value of more than 1 million pounds - 1.32m to be exact. Aleksander Kovacevic, a 23-year-old DM from Red Star Belgrade
Well, at least we're buying a DM!

Sorry, my Italian isn't great
I can't do the squiggles over the cs.
Have not watched a lot of him. But he appears to be a midfielder in the Wiltshere/Iniesta mould. The kind who can hold onto a ball by dribbling in tight spaces and capable of sexy through balls. Far more skillful than Wiltshere but obviously not at the Coutinho or Iniesta level.
An Italian as a Gerrard Replacement.. Eeeek...
Didn't we try to replace Alonso with an Italian and eventually ended up with a Scottish chap with Corner kicks 'worth 10 million alone' ?

Err he looks much more like a Barkley style dynamo to me, lots of power but a slight lack of finesse.
I can't see there being much in it tbh. He's essentially just another central AM. It's literally the last position we need to strengthen.
No no, he isn't. Peekay is right, he is definitely in the Wilshere/Iniesta mode. I wrote about him 2-3 years ago, when he was still at Dinamo Zagreb, and he used to play as an AM there - very dribbly and full of clever passing.
I know Inter tried to use him as an Alonso style regista, but I can't say if he's been successful at the role - haven't watched enough. He is however a very talented player - if we're playing a 4-3-3 again, then he'd slot very well as one of the two advanced mids (a no. 8 basically).
Agree that it's not a top priority at all. But I won't be unhappy about signing a genuinely talented player ever. Kovacic is definitely that in my book.
Funny but virtually everything in that clip put me in mind of a Barkley or a young Gerrard, and not at all of an Iniesta.
Agree to differ.
How many goals did we score from midfield this season? We need goals from anywhere.
Plays in Italy, PASS!
