I reckon hell move to a top league soon. But I doubt he is the type toet the bright lights of top clubs blind him. Better you go to a midtable club and dominate, then have big clubs salivating for your signature, than be a potential prospect big clubs fling around to remote loan destinations.I believe laporte could be right to stay he is playing against the best in the world and is showing what he can do, the standard of coaching and the facilities are very decent at his club. And the fee is always going to be relative to the league pulling up trees in a poor league isnt going to increase the fee that much. Bruno isnt of the level he as most wonderkids developed early and stood out but never kicked on. If we didnt sign him he would still be getting hyped in Argentina. Our club gives gifted young players all they need to succeed the rest is up to them. Coric has decided he isnt up to a relegation scrap or is too good for it and has decided to spin his wheels most hot prospects dont fulfil their potential, joining us may not have been corics best decision but I cant imagine wasting away in Croatia is either he should have moved to a decent league and if he kicks on the big clubs will come running. If he gets a move to a champs league team in one of the top leagues it will be as a prospect or a project. Hope he does well as he is a talent just wish he backed himself.
Zuculini backed himself too and I'm almost sure he might have ruined any chance of becoming a top player.
There is no eight way to do it. Some move to big clubs early, don't get playing time, get loaned to a bunch of teams who don't invest in them, and become mid table talents by the middle of their careers.
Others don't move in the first place and the same faith befalls them.
There are no fast rules on this, but 2 factors seem most important- playing time and developnent support from the club. If he isn't going to get either here this year, then he hasn't made the wrong decision to stay back.
His bestbet is probably to become so dominant that teams pay substantially to secure his services. And then they'll be more inclined and proactive in the attempts to play and develop the player.
This is why Laporte may have been wrong to balk, but this kid isn't.

I don't fault him for balking if the story being told is true.
Same view here.It's just smarter/safer to do it this way. I'm how sure anyone doesn't understand this or had any issue with it.
You might say Gabriel or Sane did it....those situations are different because of the price paid which guarantees a role for those two.
Manchester City are still in the race for Dinamo Zagreb midfielder Ante Coric (20) who was linked with a move last year. [Sportske Novosti]
Andyjem Barom, a representative of Coric from Doyen Sports, said City could move for him later this summer if they have leftover funds. [SN]
The guy would probably join someone else if he does move. It'd be a bit dim to join a club that isn't committed to you and will consider a move only if we've got any cash left once we've bought the players we REALLY want. I think this would only happen if there's no competition, which would seem unlikely." If they have leftover funds" means we are not really interested.
He is a very talented player, but the local hype definitely got to his head." If they have leftover funds" means we are not really interested.
Buying him and sending on loan to Girona would be fine.Coric, the agent snatches Sampdoria: "No one meets us, we wait for Manchester City"
In the footstep the surprises are always around the corner and nothing can be given for sure until it is black on white. It is also for Ante Coric , a 97-year-old talent from Dinamo Zagreb who a few weeks ago had made a big impression on Sampdoria and expressed his will to dress the blues shirt. His agent Andyjem Barom does not seem to be of the same opinion and, interviewed by Sportske Novosti , revealed that he had much bigger ambitions: " We did not receive bids only from Sampdoria , which was written so much but also from very important clubs - Has begun -. So far, however, none of these has met the demands of both sides, both of the boy and of the Dinamo. For some clubs, let's call them "smaller", Coric's price is too high, while the big companies do not currently deal with players transfers that did not play much last season with their team, in this case Dinamo. However, the agent of the quarterback reveals - Ante is aware of the situation and wants ... well, let's say Manchester City is still in play . "
CORIC, PRECEDENCE AT MANCHESTER CITY - In short, Barom has made it clear that Sampdoria is really interested in the boy, but the precedence will go to a giant of European football like the City: "In this case we will move with caution: some companies pass Immediately to action if you propose a talent that will surely explode. 99% Coric will take part in the pre-championship draw with Dinamo, which will start on June 21st. The actual kick-off begins in twenty days: they are still waiting , they want to see who buys or sells who, they observe the movements of others. We say that Manchester City will dedicate itself first to the most urgent transfers - he explains to the Croatian portal - but if they will make money from the budget for the market then they will point to Coric and there will be no problems . It's still early, these big clubs give priority to other business. When they finish, then they go to look at promising young people. "
Think this might be agent stuff and they're using the old interest from last season to generate offers from other clubs this summer. If I remember he wasn't too keen on joining us to go on loan and it looks like nothing will change on that front.He is a very talented player, but the local hype definitely got to his head.
Pep was really interested in him last summer.
Here's the whole interview of his agent (google translate from Italian). Says that many clubs are interested, including Sampdoria, but they are determined to wait for Man City's or another big club's bid.
Buying him and sending on loan to Girona would be fine.
Edit: very well may be that the agent is a bullsh*tter and just uses City to create more hype.

If we sign him I doubt he will go straight into the first team even if he's gifted and an extremely technical player.
Well thats not a surprise. Ivaylo Petev is a terrible manager. I was shocked to see Dinamo Zagreb appointing him as his career at Bulgarian national team was a disaster.I think he will move this summer, the relationship between him and the head coach at Dinamo Zagreb has broken down apparently.
