By Peter Weis @PeterVicey
Germany's main sporting tabloid reports that HNK Rijeka captain Hrvoje Smolčić has passed his Eintracht Frankfurt medical and will soon be unveiled as a €2 million summer transfer for the SGE.
The Croatian youth international will reportedly be purchased for some €2 million, two-thirds of his current market value as listed on transfermarkt. Sport Bild goes on to report that the 21-year-old is earmarked for the defensive role currently filled by Evan N'dicka.
There have been intermittent rumors that the SGE wishes to sell N'dicka for a transfer amount of over €20 million.
