Dinamo Zagreb is preparing for the match against Kauno Žalgiris in the third qualifying round of the Champions League. Coach Željko Sopić has openly spoken about the possibilities of his team, the financial situation in the club and the problems with bringing reinforcements. 'I came to a club with a yearly budget of four million euros. My players' monthly salaries range from four to seven or eight thousand euros. I haven't looked at their contracts, but that's roughly it. That's roughly the budget Gorica has. There's that', said Sopić. Dinamo Zagreb currently leads the HNL with a 3-point lead over Hajduk. In the season, they have scored 2 goals and conceded 0, with a +2 goal difference. In the third qualifying round of the Champions League, they will face Kauno Žalgiris. 'We will be able to play as much as Dinamo allows us. I don't have time to make any significant changes. Every three days, we have a match, you can get something short-term, but long-term you only lose. So I will probably, more or less, stick with the team that beat Klaksvik. Only if we manage to bring in another player I've told you about', explained Sopić. Kauno Žalgiris will face Dinamo at Maksimir, where they will have to justify their status as favorites.
