And the Rosanero owner has conceded that the 25-year-old is more than likely to depart over the summer with other Italian clubs and Bayer Leverkusen potential destinations.

“We will not but dropping the price for Josip to anyone,” he told itasportpress.it. “But it looks very difficult for him to stay.

“There are some big Italian teams looking at him, as well as Bayer [Leverkusen].”
