Striker Emerges as One of the Top Scorers in His Debut
Croatian Season
PASS Scouting provided an effective replacement for the outgoing striker, bringing in a new key player who is also close to earning a spot in the Austrian National Team
Before PASS Scouting
Osijek qualified for European competitions but sold its main goal scorer and needed to find a replacement as quickly as possible.
Task from the client
Osijek was looking for a ready striker who could play between the lines and contribute to the team's passing game. Strong finishing ability was also a key requirement.
PASS Scouting contribution
Jakupovic had a year left at Maribor, making the transfer realistic. Despite high market demand after his Austrian National Team call-up, we opened communication between the clubs and advanced negotiations, which eventually led to his signing with Osijek.
Result
Jakupovic became one of Croatia top division's top scorers and Osijek's best scorer. His impact was crucial during a tough season that ended in 7th place. Close to the Austrian National Team, he is now a clear transfer asset for Osijek.
