Transfer to Dinamo Zagreb cost ex-former Ajax manager García €150,000 in wages

García offered to repay €150,000 in wages to Pogon Szczecin to force a move to Dinamo Zagreb, but the Polish club's owner rejected the proposal.

Óscar García, former interim manager of Ajax's first team, joined Polish club Pogon Szczecin this summer after leaving Amsterdam. Within weeks, Dinamo Zagreb reached an agreement with García without Pogon's consent, prompting the Polish club's owner Alex Haditaghi to block the move.

García then attempted to resolve the impasse by offering to repay all €150,000 in wages he had earned at Pogon, according to Croatian outlet 24sata and Polish journalist Piotr Kozminski. Haditaghi refused to cooperate, angered by the circumstances.

However, the saga may not be over. Croatian media reports that Dinamo Zagreb plans to make another attempt in the winter transfer window, with reports suggesting Haditaghi might now be open to listening to offers. Pogon currently sits in third place in the Polish league.
