Borna Barisic is set for a surprise move to Bosnian champions FK Sarajevo to link up with his former manager in Croatia.
The ex-Rangers defender has been told he can leave Turkish outfit Trabzonspor after playing just 355 minutes following his summer move from Ibrox and is out of the first-team picture under manager Senol Gunes.
And he's weighing up an offer from Sarajevo to revive his career there.
They are managed by Zoran Zekic, who was Barisic's boss at Osijek before he left for Rangers in 2018.
The 32-year-old ex-Croatia international quit Rangers in the summer after 236 appearances for the Ibrox side. He moved along with teammate John Lundstram to Trabzonspor.
However, the move didn't work out and he could be set for a return to the Balkans in Bosnia.

Meanwhile, Romania FA technical director Mihai Stoichita has advised countryman Ianis Hagi to stay at Rangers for as long as he can.
He said: "Ianis Hagi is playing for Rangers. Let him continue to play for Rangers because that's very good for him.
"You can't keep at the same levels all the time - he had a dip and now he's back to top form.
"For Ianis, the most important thing is him playing every week and he's doing that at Rangers now.
"He played in the national team even when he wasn't playing for Rangers.
"In my opinion, he won't get a bigger club than Rangers.
"He is playing every week for an important team. It's perfect for him."
