Inter Milan Sign Dinamo Zagreb Prospect Leon Jakirovic for U23 Side
The teenager begins with Stefano Vecchi’s U23 group to progress through Inter’s development pathway.
Overview
- Inter officially announced the arrival of Croatian defender Leon Jakirovic from Dinamo Zagreb to their U23 squad.
- Reports indicate a transfer fee of around €2.5 million, which the club has not confirmed.
- Jakirovic will spend the remainder of the season with the U23s rather than joining the first team immediately.
- Juventus previously tried to sign him, including a reported €1.5 million bid last season that Dinamo rejected.
- The move marks Inter’s first completed signing of the January window and aligns with their focus on strengthening the bridge to the senior team.
